Homework Equations
I used the equation V = KΣiqi/ri to solve for potential at A and B
The Attempt at a Solution
For Va I used K((Q/d)+ (2Q/(d^2+d^2)^.5))
I just plugged...

That's very true. I've been reading from the book which has helped me understand the concepts better. Also have been keeping up with all the required and optional homework he assigns,but according to ratemyprofessor.com, his tests are not very similar to the homework:frown:
Hello everyone. Hopefully someone would be able to help me with this problem.
The question states:
Two point charges qa = -12 micro coulombs and qb = 45.0 micro coulombs and a third particle with unknown charge qc are located on the x axis. The particle qa is at the origin placed so that each...
Hello all. I'm an electrical engineering student at Oakland University in Auburn Hills Michigan. Currently in Calc based E&M Physics with an elderly instructor who has a very heavy accent. That being said, I think my success in the class will depend on how much I study outside of class, and...
