Ohhhh, ok. I stupidly applied the formula for E and instead of multiplying it with charge q2 to find force, I multiplied it to charge q1 once again.
Thanks for the help, appreciate it.
That's kinda what I was thinking, but I assumed you needed the force of q2 for some reason, since they specifically tell you what the charge is of q2.
Thanks for help though :biggrin:
Homework Statement
q1 = 4 mC at the origin
q2 = 2 mC at x=1.0m y=0.0m
q3 = 1 mC at x=1.0m y= 1.0m
q4 = 3 mC at x=0.0m y= 1.0m
What is the net force on q2? Give magnitude and direction of the force.
