Question

three particles are fixed on the x-axis. particle 1 of charge q1 is at x=(-a) and particle 2 of charge q2 is at x=a. if their net electrostatic force on a particle 3 of charge +Q is to be zero, what must be the ratio q1/q2 when particle 3 is at a) x=0.5a and b) x=1.5a?

Three particles are fixed on an x axis. Particle 1 of charge

q1

is at x = -a, and particle 2 of charge

q2

is at x = +a. If their net electrostatic force on particle 3 of charge +Q is to be zero, what must be the ratio

q1/q2

when particle 3 is at (a) x = +0.500a and (b) x = +1.50a
