Learning Goal: Learning Ojective -- Electric Force in a system of three point charges on a Triangle Coulomb's law for the magnitude of the electrostatic (electric) force F between two particles with charges and Q separated by a distance d is |F|=kQQ| where k = 9.00 x 10⁹ N/(m² C²) is the Coulomb Constant. The direction of the force is along the line connecting the two charges. If the charges have the same sign, the force will be repulsive. If the charges have opposite signs, the force will be attractive. In other words, opposite charges attract and like charges repel. Configuration of this problem: 92 d₁2 a d₁3 d₂3 a 93 Part C - Calculate the magnitude of the electrostatic (electric) force on charge q2 by charge q1. ▶ Part D - What is the direction of the electrostatic (electric) force ON charge q2 BY charge q1? To find the magnitude and the direction of the NET electrostatic (electric) force on charge q2 (by charges q3 and q1), you will need to do a VECTOR addition. Here you will be led through the steps. But in exams, you must be able to do the steps without guidance. ▶ Part E - What is the x component of the NET electrostatic (electric) force on charge q2 (by charge q3 and q1)? You can open the hint if you need help. ▶ Part F - What is the y component of the NET electrostatic (electric) force on charge q2 (by charge q3 and q1)? You can open the hint if you need help. Part G - Find the magnitude of the NET electrostatic (electric) force on charge q2 (by charge q3 and q1). ▶ Part H - Find the direction of the NET electrostatic (electric) force on charge q2 (by charge q3 and q1).
