To solve the problem of where to place a third charged particle so that it does not experience a net electric force due to two fixed charges, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Charges and Their Positions**: - Charge A: \( q_A = 8.0 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C} \) (positive charge) - Charge B: \( q_B = -2.0 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C} \) (negative charge) - Separation between A and B: \( d = 20 \, \text{cm} = 0.2 \, \text{m} \) ...
