Question
Three charges q1, q, and q2 are in a line. If q = 5.0 μC and d = 30 cm, then what is the magnitude and direction of the electric force acts on the charge q.
Known :
Charge 1 (q1) = 30 μC = 30 x 10-6 C
Charge 2 (q2) = 60 μC = 60 x 10-6 C
Charge 3 (q) = 5 μC = 5 x 10-6 C
Distance between q1 and q = d
Distance between q2 and q = 2d
d = 30 cm = 0.3 meters
d2 = (0.3)2 = 0.09 meters
Coulomb’s constant (k) = 9 x 109 N m2 C-2
