A charge q1 = +5.00 nC is placed at the origin of an xy-coordinate system, and a charge q2 = -2.00 nC is placed on the positive x-axis at x = 4.00 cm. (a) If a third charge q3 = +6.00 nC is now placed at the point x = 4.00 cm, y = 3.00 cm, find the x- and y-components of the total force exerted on this charge by the other two. (b) Find the magnitude and direction of this force.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The x and y components of the total force exerted on q3are 3105Nand respectively 6.5105N.

(b) The magnitude of this force is 7.15109Nand the direction is 245from +x axis.

Step by step solution

01

Orientation of charges

The charges are aligned as given in the figure:

According to superposition principle:

Fx=F21F31cosFy=F13sin

02

Components of force

x direction of force is given by

Fx=kq1q2r12+kq1q3r22xr2=910951092109(0.04)29109510961090.04(0.04)2+(0.03)23/2=3105N

y direction of force component is given by:

Fy=kq1q3r22yr2=9109510961090.03(0.04)2+(0.03)23/2=6.5105N

Therefore, the x and y components of the total force exerted on q3are -310-5Nand 6.5105Nrespectively.

03

Magnitude and direction of force

Magnitude of f is given by

F=Fx2+Fy2=31052+6.51052=7.15109N

The angle is given by

=arctan6.53=65

But is in 4th quadrant so add 180

=65+180=245

Therefore, the magnitude of this force is 7.1510-9Nand the direction is 245from +x axis.
