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. Homework Equations E = kq/r^2 E = F/qThe Attempt at a Solution Ok after plotting the locations...
