What is the net electrostatic force on the charge q3 (-48ìC), due to charges q1(+78ìC) and q2 (+50ìC)?

Answer 1

use coulomb's law, add the forces as vectors.

Answer 2

this question will help me too, if only you can give abit more detail,when it comes to answering this question... please

Answer 3

The individual forces and the net force will depend upon charge separation distances and locations, which were not provided.

Answer 4

the distance between q3 and q2 is 48 cm and between q2 and q1 is 56 cm ??
what would the answer be now?

Answer 5

drwls, here is a diagram of the problem:

Because Jishka blocks internet addresses, you have to
1. add com after imgur
2. after com, add a forward slash
