Chapter 22, Problem 36AP
Two point charges qA = −12.0 μC and qB = 45.0 μC and a third particle with unknown charge qC are located on the x axis. The particle qA is at the origin, and qB is at x = 15.0 cm. The third particle is to be placed so that each particle is in equilibrium under the action of the electric forces exerted by the other two particles. (a) Is this situation possible? If so, is it possible in more than one way? Explain. Find (b) the required location and (c) the magnitude and the sign of the charge of the third particle.

What is an example of a scientific hypothesis
Multiverse is called a theory. It has been proposed to account for the apparent and uncanny fine tuning of our own universe. The idea of the multiverse is that there are infinite, distinct universes out there - all with distinct laws of nature and natural constants - and we live in just one of them. Using the accepted definition of the universe being all that there is (matter, space and energy), would you say that multiverse is a scientific theory?
How is a law usually different than a theory
