Answer:

2585.34N

Explanation:

Parameters given;

[tex]q_1 = -2.3 * 10^{-6}C\\q_2 = 3.2 * 10^{-6}C\\q_3 = -1.6 * 10^{-6}C\\k = 8.99 * 10^{9}Nm^{2}[/tex]

The total force F acting on [tex]q_2[/tex] is the addition of the force acting on

Taking charge [tex]q_2[/tex] as our reference point, then:

F = [tex]-F_{q_1q_2}[/tex] + [tex]F_{q_2q_3}[/tex]

[tex]F_{q_1q_2}[/tex] is negative because if we take [tex]q_2[/tex] as our reference point (origin), then, [tex]-F_{q_1q_2}[/tex] would be on the -ve x axis.

We have to consider the positions and directions of the forces.

[tex]F_{q_1q_2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

r = distance between both charges.

Distance between charge [tex]q_1[/tex] and [tex]q_2[/tex] = 7.5 cm = [tex]7.5 * 10^{-3}[/tex]m

[tex]F_{q_1q_2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8.99 * 10^9 * -2.3 * 10^{-6} * 3.2 * 10^{-6}}{(7.5 * 10^{-3})^2}[/tex]

[tex]F_{q_1q_2}[/tex] = -1176.29N

[tex]F_{q_2q_3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{kq_2q_3}{r^2}[/tex]

Distance between charge [tex]q_2[/tex] and [tex]q_3[/tex] = (11 - 7.5) cm = 3.5cm = [tex]3.5 * 10^{-3}[/tex]m

[tex]F_{q_2q_3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9 * 10^9 * 3.2 * 10^{-6} * -1.6 * 10^{-6}}{(3.5 * 10^{-3})^2}[/tex]

[tex]F_{q_2q_3}[/tex] = -3761.63N

Therefore, F is:

[tex]F = -(-1176.29) + (-3761.63)\\\\F = 1176.29 - 3761.63\\\\F = -2585.34N[/tex]

Since we only need the magnitude, F = 2585.34N

The magnitude of force acting on the forces is mathematically given as

F = -2585.34N

What is the magnitude of the force acting on the forces?

Question Parameter(s):

Three-point charges lie on the xx axis.

Charge 1 (-2.3 μCμC ) is at the origin,

charge 2 (+3.2 μCμC )  at xx =7.5 cm

charge 3 (-1.6 μCμC ) is at xx =11 cmcm.

k=8.99×109N⋅m2/C2

Generally, the equation for the total force F   is mathematically given as

F = -F{q1q2} + F{q2q3}

Where

F{q1q2} = \frac{kq1q2}{r^2}

[tex]F{q1q2} = \frac{8.99 * 10^9 * -2.3 * 10^{-6} * 3.2 * 10^{-6}}{(7.5 * 10^{-3})^2}[/tex]

F{q1q2} = -1176.29N

Also

[tex]F{q2q3} = \frac{9 * 10^9 * 3.2 * 10^{-6} * -1.6 * 10^{-6}}{(3.5 * 10^{-3})^2}[/tex]

F{q2q3} = -3761.63N

In conclusion

F = -(-1176.29) + (-3761.63)

F = -2585.34N
