Homework Statement
Two point charges are located on the y-axis as follows: charge q1=-2.5nC at y=-0.6m, and charge q2=+3.5nC at the origin. What is the net force (x, y components) exerted by these two charges on a third charge q3=+5.0nC located at y=-0.4m?
Homework Equations
F=k (abs(q1*q2)/r^2)
k is constant k=9x10^9 N*M^2/C^2
The Attempt at a Solution
Like Charges repel, opposite charges attract.
q2 is at the origin, q1 is -0.6m far from q2. q3 -0.4m far from q2.
Not sure if i quite got it right...
if any1 can help me out...thx a lot for your time.
