Two charges +5 μC and +12 μC are placed along the x axis, with the first charge at the origin (x = 0) and the second charge at x = +1 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the net force on a -10 nC charge when placed at the following locations below. Overall Hint a. halfway between the two charges: magnitude of force is direction is in +x direction b. on the x axis at x = -0.5 m: magnitude of force is direction is in +x direction 0° mN, and the mN, and the c. at the coordinate (x, y) = (1 m, 0.5 m) (half a meter above the +12 μC charge in a direction perpendicular to the line joining the two fixed charges): Hint for (c) Magnitude of force is mN, and the direction is degrees below - axis.
