Question
Let there be three charges whose locations are given with respect to a coordinate system - Charge q1=32μC is located at P1 (0,12) , Charge q2=20μC is located at P2 (−12,30.0) and Charge q3=4μC is located at P3 (−22,0) . All the coordinates have units in centimeters.
a) Find the position vector that points from P1 to P3? ( Give X and Y coordinates )
b) Find the electric force on q2 due to q3 only? ( give X and Y coordinates )
