To solve the problem, we need to determine the position where a third charged particle (let's call it particle C) should be placed so that it experiences no net electric force due to the other two charged particles A and B. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Charges and Their Positions**: - Charge A (QA) = \(8.0 \times 10^{-6} \, C\) - Charge B (QB) = \(-2.0 \times 10^{-6} \, C\) - The distance between A and B = 20 cm = 0.2 m. ...
