Homework Statement A particle with a mass of 2.0 x10^-5 kg and a charge of +2.0 microColoumbs is released in a (parallel plate) uniform horizontal electric field of 12 N/C a) HOw far horizontally does the particle travel in 5.0 s? b) What is the horizontal component of its velocity at...

yes! that's what I thought... thank you!

is there any way I can prove it with the formula kq1q2/r^2?

Two point charges of -1.0 micro C and +1.0 micro C are fixed at opposite ends of a meterstick. Where could a) a free electron and b) a free proton be in electrostatic equilibrium? I'm guessing the answer is nowhere since there have to be opposite charges to be in equilibrium?
