Answer to Question #153717 in Physics for May

Question

Charge 1 (+Q) is at the point (0,a). Charge 2 is at the point (0,-2a).

(a) Find the electric force (magnitude and direction) felt by Charge 1 due to Charge 2.

(b) Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) at the origin created by both charges (in other words, find the net electric field).

(c) Is there a point on the x-axis where the total electric field is zero? If so, where? If not, explain briefly.

(d) If a small negative charge, -q, of mass m were placed at the origin, determine its initial acceleration (magnitude and direction).
