An infinite line of positive charge lies along the y axis, with charge density = 2.00 C/m. A dipole is placed with its center along the x axis at x = 25.0 cm. The dipole consists of two charges 10.0 C separated by 2.00 cm. The axis of the dipole makes an angle of 35.0 with the x axis, and the positive charge is farther from the line of charge than the negative charge. Find the net force exerted on the dipole.
Assume the charged objects in Figure OQ19.15 are fixed. Notice that there is no sight line from the location of q2 to the location of q1. If you were at q1, you would be unable to see q2 because it is behind q3. How would you calculate the electric force exerted on the object with charge q1? (a) Find only the force exerted by q2 on charge q1. (b) Find only the force exerted by q3 on charge q1. (c) Add the force that q2 would exert by itself on charge q1 to the force that q3 would exert by itself on charge q1. (d) Add the force that q3 would exert by itself to a certain fraction of the force that q2 would exert by itself. (e) There is no definite way to find the force on charge q1. Figure OQ19.15
