Homework Statement
Given three equal(1,2,3) (negative) charged particles , forming a circle ; and a charged particle on the center of the circle(#4).
360/3 = 120 . The angle between the charged particles are 120 degrees.
Homework Equations
1) First Case : Find the resultant force on q4 applied by q1,q2,q3 knowing that q1=q2=q3=q4.If q4>0.
2)Second case : Same as before , if q4<0.
Comment on the solution : Is there equilibrium
The Attempt at a Solution
F4 = F1/4 + F2/4 + F3/4 : All as a vector.
But F1/4 +F3/4 = -F2/4 : Replace in the equation F4 = 0 ,there is equilibrium . . .
Thanks in advance.
