Charges in Right Triangle
Electricity and Magnetism
Level
3
Three equal charges are placed in such a way that they form a right triangle with sides \(3\text{ cm}, 4\text{ cm}, 5\text{ cm}.\) Each charge has a magnitude of \(2\times 10^{-6}\text{C}\).
Find the net force acting on the charge at the right angle.
\(\)
Details and assumptions:
Take \(\dfrac 1{4\pi\epsilon_0} = 9\times 10^9\text{ Nm}^2/\text{C}^2\).
Round your answer to the nearest integer.
