The sketch below shows three objects with electric charge. (The charge of each object is written on it.) Decide whether there is a net electric force acting on the central object. If there is, select the button under the sketch that shows the direction of this force. If there is no net force on the central object, select the center button.

Figure 1) shows four electrical charges located at the corners of a rectangle. Like charges, you will recall, repel each other while opposite charges attract. Charge BB exerts a repulsive force (directly away from BB) on charge AA of 4.8 NN. Charge CC exerts an attractive force (directly toward CC) on charge AA of 9.6 NN. Finally, charge DD exerts an attractive force of 3.2 NN on charge AA.

Which statement best describes the electrostatic force and the electric field? Group of answer choices The electrostatic force requires two charges and the electric field requires two charges. The electrostatic force is intrinsic to one charge and electric field is intrinsic to one charge. The electrostatic force is intrinsic to one charge and the electric field requires two charges. The electrostatic force requires two charges and the electric field is intrinsic to one charge.
Write up a description of how you verified the 1/r2 dependence of the electric force between two charged objects and estimated the charge on the objects (assuming their charges were equal)
Each sketch below shows three objects with an electric charge. In each case, decide whether there is a net force acting on the object outlined in green. If there is a net force, decide whether it pushes the green-ring object to the left or right. Then select the appropriate button under the sketch. For example, if there is a net force pushing the green-ring object in the first sketch to the left, select the left button under the first sketch. If there is no net force on the green-ring object in the second sketch, select the middle button under the second sketch. And so on.
