Question

three point charges q q minus Q are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side length L find the magnitude of the acting on the first charge

Answer 1

sorry i didnt get your questions can u plzz attach thr image of the question as well

Answer 2

The magnitude of the force acting on the first charge is  $\frac{q^{2} }{4\pi el^{2} }$

This can be proved as follows:

• Let force on the first charge be represented as q

• Now, the force acting on the first charge will be  F =  $\frac{q^{2} }{4\pi el^{2} }$

• Where,

1. q is the charge.
2. π is equivalent to 3.14159.
3. e is the epsilon and equivalent to 8.854 × 10⁻¹² farads per meter.
4. l is the length of the sides of the triangle.
