Answer:
F_net = - 0.365 N (Down-ward direction)
Explanation:
Given:
- Value of r = 0.75 m
- Charges on x axis are -2*q
- Charge +q on origin
- Charge on - y axis is -2q
- Charge on + y axis is +q
- q = 5.00 * 10^-6 C
Find:
-What is the magnitude of the net force on the ball of mass m that is located on the positive y-axis, because of the other four balls?
Solution:
- Force due to each of the two charges on x axis:
F_x = k*(-2*q)*(+q) / r*^2
r* = sqrt(2)*r
F_x = -k*q^2 / r^2 (Down-wards)
- Force due to +q charge on origin:
F_y = k*(+q)*(+q) / r^2
F_y = + k*q^2 / r^2 (Up-wards)
- Force due to -2*q charge on y-axis:
F_-2y = k*(-2*q)*(+q) / 4*r^2
F_-2y = - k*q^2 / 2*r^2 (Downwards-wards)
- Total net Force on charge +q on + y-axis:
2*F_x*sin(45) + F_y + F_-2y = F_net
-sqrt(2)*k*q^2 / r^2 + k*q^2 / r^2 - k*q^2 / 2*r^2 = F_net
(0.5-sqrt(2))*k*q^2 / r^2 = F_net
F_net = (0.5-sqrt(2))*(8.99*10^9)*(5*10^-6)^2 / 0.75^2
F_net = - 0.365 N
