- Figure shows an arrangement of four charged particles, with angle θ=35.0° and distance d=2.00 cm. Particle 2 has charge q2= +8.00x10-19 C; particles 3 and 4 have charges q3 = q4 = -1.60x10-19 C.
- What is distance D between the origin and particle 2 if the net electrostatic force on particle 1 due to the other particles is zero?
- If particles 3 and 4 were moved closer to the x axis but maintained their symmetry about that axis, would the required value of D be greater than, less than, or the same as in part (a)?
- What about the sign of particle 1? Let say it is (+)
