In the coordinate system shown in the figure, particle 1
with charge q1 = 12 μC is
located at coordinates (x1,y1) =
(-3, 0) m and particle 2 with
charge q2 = -9.5 μC is
located at coordinates (x2,y2) = (1,
0) m.
A. If you assume the potential vanishes at infinity, the
potential will be zero at some point (x0,0)
with -3 m < x0 < 1 m. Write an
expression for x0 in terms
of q1, q2,
x1, and x2.
B. Solve for the numerical value
of x0.
C. Solve for the numerical value
of E0, in newtons per coulomb.
