Answer:

x coordinate = -1.66 m

y coordinate is = -0.825m

Explanation:

Suppose z be the distance form the first charge and z + sqrt(1^2 +.5^2) be the distance from the second So z + sqrt(1+.25) = z + 1.12

We have k*2.0x10^-6/s^2 = k*6x10^-6/(s+1.12)^2

0.0356s^2 -0.019s-0.0897=0  

s=1.876m

The angle of the line between the two charges is arctan(.5/1) = 26.6o

x coordinate = -1.876*cos(26.6) = -1.66m

y coordinate is -1.876*sin(26.6) = -0.825m

The first thing we must do for this case is the sum of forces in a horizontal direction.

We have then:

F1 + F2 = m * a

Substituting values we have:

50 + 75 = m * 2.5

From here, we clear the mass of the object:

m * 2.5 = 125\\m = 125 / 2.5\\m = 50 Kg

We now look for the weight of the object.

W = m * g

Where,

g: acceleration of gravity (9.8 m/s^2)

Substituting values:

W = 50 * 9.8\\W = 490 N

Answer:

the weight of the object is:

W = 490 N
