Question
The following 5 charges are arranged on the corners and the center of a square as shown. Evaluate the direction of the forces listed. Note that these forces are specifically the force of one charged object on a different charged object, not the force from all of the charged objects on another. If the force is zero, select No Force. +, - and 0 represent positive, negative and neutrally charged objects, respectively.
The force due to Object 5 on Object 4.
The force due to Object 3 on Object 5.
The force due to Object 3 on Object 1.
The force due to Object 1 on Object 2.
The force due to Object 1 on Object 5.
The force due to Object 2 on Object 1.
Explanation / Answer
1) Down
Since object 5 and4 are both negative, hence 5 repel 4 in downward direction.
2) Left
Since object 5 and 3 are both opposite, hence 3 attaract 5 towards left.
3)
0, Since object 1 is neutral
4)
0 Since object 1 is neutral
5)
0 Since object 1 is neutral
6)
0 Since object 1 is neutral
