Question

 • two charges +9mc +16mc are placed at a corner of traingle A and C.The point B is at 90 degree at the triangle such that AB =3m, BC=4m. Find the magnitude and direction of electric field intensity at point B​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here's your answer

Explanation:

Two point charges +9q and +9.

Kept apart =16cm=16×10

−2

m

Two cases will be needed.

Given charges, +q, +9q. let, the third charge q be placed at a distance x from q and hence its distance from 9q and (16−x)cm for the system to remain in equilibrium F

=F

2

Therefore,

F

=

x

2

K(q×Q)

F

2

=

(16−x)

2

K(9q×Q)

Equating F

1

and F

2

we get,

x

9

=

(16−x)

F

=F

2

or,

x

2

K(q×Q)

=

(16−x)

2

K(9q×Q)

or,

x

1

=

(16−x)

9

or,

x

1

=

(16−x)

9

or, 16−x=3x

or, 4x=16

or, x=4

∴ (16−4)cm=12cm from +9q.
