Document Summary

So we know that opposites attract and like charges repel. We"ll choose the +x direction to point to the right. Calculate the net force on particle q1 due to the other two charges (q2, q3) List all the known quantities in the problem. Calculate the magnitude of each force separately using. Q1 and q2 have opposite charges, so f21 is attractive, which means that f21 pulls q1 in the. Q1 and q3 have like charges, so f31 is repulsive, which means that f31 pushes q1 in the -x direction. Consider four charges arranged in a square pattern as shown. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the net force on the top-left charge (q1) due to the other three charges. We want to calculate an electrical force on a charge. What tools do we have to accomplish that task. Step 0(d) (i) do we have that information? (ii) if not, how do we get that information? (i) mostly.
