Two point charges , -2muC and +6muC are ...

Two point charges , `-2muC` and `+6muC` are fixed on a table at a distance 10 cm from each other. Where should the third charge be placed so that no net force acts on it ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of where to place a third charge so that no net force acts on it, we need to analyze the electric fields created by the two fixed charges. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Charges and Their Positions**: - We have two charges: - Charge \( q_1 = -2 \, \mu C \) (negative charge) at position \( A \). - Charge \( q_2 = +6 \, \mu C \) (positive charge) at position \( B \). ...
