The electric force is exerted by a 40-nC charged particle located at the origin

Question

The electric force is exerted by a 40-nC charged particle located at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system on a 20-nC charged particle located at (2.0 m, 2.0 m ).

Part A

Determine the direction of the force.

Determine the direction of the force.

+y direction

Part B

Determine the magnitude of the force.

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

?y direction +x direction ?x direction 45? clockwise from the +x axis. 45? counterclockwise from the +x axis.

+y direction

Part B

Determine the magnitude of the force.

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

FE =

Explanation / Answer

teh force is exactly between the x and y axis

that is is 45 degrees anticlockwise from x axis

its magnitude will be

F=kq1q2/(22+22)

we are given all values

we can find magnitude
