Question
Charge Q1 is located at the +70.0-cm mark along an axis. Charge Q2 is located at the -20.0-cm mark along the same axis. Where along the axis must a third charge Q3 be placed in order for the net electric force upon it to be 0 N? We know that:
Q₁ = -7.60 μC
Q2 = +5.50 μC

- A charge q1 equal to 0.500 μC is at the origin, and a second charge q2 equal to 0.800 μC is on the x axis at 4.00 cm. Find the force (magnitude and direction) that 0.500-μC charge exerts on 0.800-μC charge. Enter a positive value if the force acts in the +x direction and a negative value if the force acts in the -x direction. (Express your answer to three significant figures.) Find the force (magnitude and direction) that 0.800-μC charge exerts on 0.500-μC charge. Enter a positive value if the force acts in the +x direction and a negative value if the force acts in the -x direction. (Express your answer to three significant figures.) How would your answers change if q2q2 were -0.800 μC? The magnitudes of the forces would rise, while the directions would be the same. The magnitudes of the forces would rise and the directions would change to opposite.
