Homework Statement
A charge of 4.0 microcoulombs is positioned at the origin, and a charge of -5.6 microcoulombs is positioned 32.7 centimeters to its right. The charges are not free to move; they are fixed in place. Where on the x-axis must a third charge of arbitrary sign be placed in order to be in electrostatic equilibrium?
Homework Equations
Fc = K(Q1)(Q2)/d^2
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried graphing it and finding the intersection of
4.0/x^2 and -5.6/x^2 + 32.7 but no dice
