That would be c. :) :) :)
Answer:
- 2.7 x 10^-6 J
Explanation:
q1 = 1 nC at x = 0 cm
q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm
q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm
The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

where r be the distance between the two charges
By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by



U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J
Answer:
Fc = 1.7x10^-4 N
Explanation:
Convert everything to proper units:
m = 25mg = 2.5x10^-5 kg
r = 17.6cm = 0.176m
v = 110cm/s = 1.1m/s
the formula for centripetal force is Fc = mv^2 / r
Plug everything and solve for Fc;
fc = (2.5x10^-5)(1.1^2) / 0.176
Fc = 1.7x10^-4 N
