Yes, it would be somewhere along the line that connects the two points because the negative charge would push the electron towards the positive charge. I just don't understand how to mathematically find the point that it reaches equilibrium. I know you would set the two forces equal to each...

Homework Statement A point charge of -1.0 µC is located at the origin. A second point charge of 16 µC is at x = 1 m, y = 0.5 m. Find the x and y coordinates of the position at which an electron would be in equilibrium. Homework Equations F=k((q1q2)/r^2) The Attempt at a Solution I have gotten...
