A positive point charge q1 = 3.0 μC is located at x = 0, y = 0.30 m, a negative point charge q2 = -3.0 μC is located at x = 0, y = -0.30 m. A third point charge Q = 4.0 μC is located at x = 0.40 m, y = 0.
A)What is the magnitude of the total electric force that charges q1 and q2 exert on charge Q? Express your answer in newtons.
B)What is the direction of the total electric force that charges q1 and q2exert on charge Q? Express your answer in degrees.
b. The direction of the net force is towards -y direction.
53.1 degrees from F1 and F2.
270 degrees from +x axis. (Counterclockwise direction).
