1. Two point charges are fixed on the y-axis: a negative point charge q1= -25C at y1=
+.22 m and a positive point charge q2 at y2= +.39 m. A third point charge q3= 8.4C is
fixed at the origin. The net electrostatic force exerted on the charge q3 has a
magnitude of 27N in the positive y direction.A) What is the charge on q2? B) Suppose
q2 is moved to another system, where q2 is at x= +3 m and another charge, q4, which
has a charge of +2q2, is located at the origin, where along the x-axis does the electric
field equal 0?

A charged cloud system produces an electric field in the air near the
Earth's surface. A particle of charge -2.8

downward electrostatic force of 3.0 10-6 N when placed in this
field. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric field? (b) What are
the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force Fel exerted on
a proton placed in this field? (c) What is the magnitude of the
gravitational force Fg on the proton? (d) What is the ratio Fel / Fg in
this case?

is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the particle? C) If the particle suddenly
came to a stop by an outside force, what is the potential difference across the initial
point where the force was applied and the particles final position? No energy is lost
to heat.
