Answer:
Explanation:
Let the equilibrium position of third charge be x distance from q₁.
Force on third charge due to q₁
= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x²
Force on third charge due to q₂
= 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²
Both the force will act in opposite direction and for balancing , they should be equal.
9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ / x² = 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 10⁻⁹ x 15 x 10⁺⁹ /( .40-x)²
5 / x² = 2 / ( .4 - x )²
Taking square root on both sides
2.236 / x = 1.414 / .4 - x
2.236 ( .4 - x ) = 1.414 x
.8944 - 2.236 x = 1.414 x
.8944 = 3.65 x
x = .245 m
24.5 cm
So the third charge should be at a distance of 24.5 cm from q₁ .
