Aparticle with charge 3 is located on the x0axis at the point 4cm, and a second aprtucle with charge, what is the magnitude of the total electrostatic force on a third particle with charge 6?

179.7 N

Explanation:

Notice: check attached file/picture for the diagram showing the arrangement of charged particles.

The mathematical expression for coulumb's law is given below;

F= Kq1q2/ r^2 ---------------------------(1).

Slotting in the given parameters;

F(1)= 8.9875× 10^9 × 3× 6/(0.12)^2.

F(1)= 161,775,000,000/ 0.144.

F(1)= 11,234,375,000,000

F(1)= 11.2 N towards left.

Also, the force due to -5 uC charge placed at x = 6 cm.

Using coulumb's law equation in equation (1), we have;

F(2)= 8.9875×10^9 × 5 × 6/ (0.042).

F(2)= 168.5 N.

Therefore, net force on 6 uC charge will be;

=F(1)+ F(2)

= 168.5 N + 11.2 N

= 179.7N.

Hence, the magnitude of the total electrostatic force on a third particle with charge 6 is 179.7 N

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..

waves moving from a fast medium to a slow medium will experience a reflection as light travels more slowly than red light. total internal reflection occurs when the critical angle is.
