Transcribed Image Text:### Problem Statement
Two point particles with charges \( +3 \mu C \) and \( +8 \mu C \) are held in place by \( 9 \, \text{N} \) forces on each charge in appropriate directions.
#### (a) Draw a free-body diagram for each particle.
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram consists of three pairs of free-body diagrams for the two charged particles. Each charged particle \( +3 \mu C \) and \( +8 \mu C \) is represented by a small circle with the charge written next to it. Forces are depicted as arrows pointing in the direction of the force with magnitudes marked as \( 1 \, \text{N}, 2 \, \text{N}, 9 \, \text{N} \) with labels \( \overrightarrow{F_{12}} \) and \( \overrightarrow{F_{21}} \).
1. **First Diagram Pair (Incorrect):**
- **Left Particle (+3 μC):**
- \( \overrightarrow{F_{12}} \) pointing to the right.
- Force labeled \( 1 \, \text{N} \) and then \( 9 \, \text{N} \) on the right side.
- **Right Particle (+8 μC):**
- \( \overrightarrow{F_{21}} \) pointing to the left.
- Force labeled \( 2 \, \text{N} \) and then \( 9 \, \text{N} \) on the left side.
2. **Second Diagram Pair (Correct):**
- **Left Particle (+3 μC):**
- \( 9 \, \text{N} \) pointing left.
- \( 1 \, \text{N} \) pointing right.
- \( \overrightarrow{F_{12}} \) pointing to the right.
- **Right Particle (+8 μC):**
- \( 9 \, \text{N} \) pointing right.
- \( 2 \, \text{N} \) pointing left.
- \( \overrightarrow{F_{21}} \) pointing to the left.
- The check mark indicates this is the correct pair of diagrams.
3. **Third Diagram Pair (Incorrect):**
- **Left Particle (+3 μC
