Chapter 20, Problem 3P
A 240-m length of wire stretches between two towers and carries a 120-A current. Determine the magnitude of the force on the wire due to the Earth’s magnetic field of 5.0× 10-5 T which makes an angle of 680 with the wire.

Example
Two charges, one with +10 μC of charge, and
another with - 7.0 μC of charge are placed in
line with each other and held at a fixed distance
of 0.45 m. Where can you put a 3rd charge of +5
μC, so that the net force on the 3rd charge is
zero?
*
Coulomb's Law Example
Three charges are positioned as seen below. Charge
1 is +2.0 μC and charge 2 is +8.0μC, and charge 3 is -
6.0MC.
What is the magnitude and the direction of the force
on charge 2 due to charges 1 and 3?
