Answer #1

Given:

qA = +13.6 nC at origin

qB = - 27.7 nC at (0, 2cm).

r = distance between the charges = 2 cm.

a) The magnitude of electric force on A by B is [answer]

b) The magnitude of electric force on B by A is [answer]

c) As the charges are unlike, they will attract each other.

Therefore, the direction of force on A is towards positive x-axis. [answer]

d) The direction of force on B is towards negative x-axis. [answer]
