Suppose that three point charges, q a , q b and q c are arranged at the vertices of a right-angled
triangle, as shown in the diagram. What is the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic
force acting on the third charge if q a = -0.6μC, q B = +4.0 μC, q c = +20 μC. Let a= 4.0 m, and b=
3.0 m?
Answer: F(magnitude) = 77.4S exp -3 N, angle=2.53
