Two point charges Q and 4Q are at x = 0 and x = L, respectively, and free to move. A third charge is placed so that the entire three-charge system is in static equilibrium. What are the magnitude, sign, and x-coordinate of the third charge?
The three point charges are arranged along the x-axis. The charge q1 = +5.00 mC is at x= -0.100, and the charge q2 = -8.00 mC is at x = 0.200 m. Where is q3 if the net force on q1 is 5.00 N in the positive x-axis direction?
Three point charges are arranged on the xy-plane. Charge Q3=4 µC is located on the
x-axis at x=0.4 m. Charge Q₂=2 µC is located on the y-axis at y=-0.3 m. Charge
Q₁=2 µC is located on the y-axis at y=0.3 m. What is the net force (magnitude and
direction) on Q₁?
