Answer:
0N
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Q1 = Q2 = Q3 = 100 * 10^(-9) C
r = 0.3 m
The net force on the middle charge is:
F = F(1,2) + F(2,3)
Where F(1,2) = force due to Q1 on Q2
F(2,3) = force due to Q3 on Q2
F(1,2) = k*Q(1)*Q(2)/r²
F(1,2) = [9 * 10^9 * 100 * 10^(-9) * 100 * 10^(-9)]/(0.3²)
F(1,2) = 0.001N
F(2,3) = k*Q(2)*Q(3)/r²
F(2,3) = [9 * 10^9 * 100 * 10^(-9) * -100 * 10^(-9)]/(0.3²)
F(2,3) = -0.001N
Therefore,
F = 0.001 - 0.001
F = 0N
