Expert Solution
Step 1
We are given system of 3 charges. These charges are at vertices of equilateral triangle. We hence find the force on the given charge at one of the vertices.
The electric force is given as
Here are the 2 charges and distance between them respectively.
We hence find force due to each charge and then find the direction of net force.
