Question

A point charge q₁ = -3.2 μC is located at the origin of a co-ordinate system. Another point charge q₂ = 7.3 μC is located along the x-axis at a distance x₂ = 6.4 cm from q₁.

a) Charge q₂ is now displaced a distance y₂ = 3.6 cm in the positive y-direction. What is the new value for the x-component of the force that q₁ exerts on q₂?

b) A third point charge q₃ is now positioned halfway between q₁ and q₂. The net force on q₂ now has a magnitude of F_2,net = 13 N and points away from q₁ and q₃. What is the value (sign and magnitude) of the charge q₃?
