Particles 1 and 2 of charge q1 = q2 = +3.20 x 10-19 C are on a y axis at distance d = 22.0 cm from the origin. Particle 3 of charge q3 = +9.60 x 10-19 C is moved gradually along the x axis from x = 0 to x = +5.0 m.
At what value of x will the magnitude of the electrostatic force on the third particle from the other two particles be maximum?
What is the maximum magnitude?
