Question

Particle A of charge 6.00 10-4 C is at the origin, particle B of charge -5.00 10-4 C is at (6.00 m, 0) and particle C of charge 3.00 10-4 C is at (0, 5.00 m)


(a) What is the x-component of the electric force exerted by A on C?=0

(b) What is the y-component of the force exerted by A on C?= 64.7

(c) Find the magnitude of the force exerted by B on C.

(d) Calculate the x-component of the force exerted by B on C.

(e) Calculate the y-component of the force exerted by B on C.

(f) Sum the two x-components to obtain the resultant x-component of the electric force acting on C.

(g) Repeat part (f) for the y-component.

(h) Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant electric force acting on C.
