Transcribed Image Text:Figure (a) shows charged particles 1 and 2 that are fixed in place on an x axis. Particle 1 has a charge with a magnitude of 19₁1 = 22e.
Particle 3 of charge q3 = +22e is initially on the x axis near particle 2.Then particle 3 is gradually moved in the positive direction of the x
axis. As a result, the magnitude of the net electrostatic force on particle 2 due to particles 1 and 3 changes. Figure (b) gives the x
component of that net force as a function of the position x of particle 3. The scale of the x axis is set by x = 1.80 m. The plot has an
asymptote of F2,net = 2.570 × 10-25 N as x→→. As a multiple of e and including the sign, what is the charge 92 of particle 2?
