    Find the Distance for Net Zero Force: Two Charges at Origin and x=L

    Yes, but I am confused on how I would plug into the equation as putting a 0 force in with not let me work out any distance.

    Find the Distance for Net Zero Force: Two Charges at Origin and x=L

    I'm still a bit confused on how to actually approach the problem itself. I don't understand what equations I should be using to get it started?

    Find the Distance for Net Zero Force: Two Charges at Origin and x=L

    I would expect the charge to be located on the opposite side of the electron the exact same distance from the origin proton location.

    Find the Distance for Net Zero Force: Two Charges at Origin and x=L

    1.)Two charges are fixed in location: charge q1= +8e is located at the origin and charge q2= -2e is located on the x-axis at x=L. At what point can a proton be placed so that it has net zero force acting on it? 2.)F=kq1q2/r^2 3.)I tried to do F=0 K = 8.988 X 10^9 (constant) q1 = (8...
