There are four charges, each with a magnitude of 3.10 μC. Two are positive and two are negative. The charges are fixed to the corners of a 0.367−m square, one to a corner, in such a way that the net force on any charge is directed toward the center of the square. Find the magnitude of the net electrostatic force experienced by any charge. Number Units

Field and force with three charges At a particular moment, one negative and two positive charges are located as shown in the figure. Your answers to each part of this problem should be vectors. It helps a great deal to make a diagram with arrows representing the various electric field contributions, and then check the signs of your components against these arrows. Let Q1 = 1 μC, Q2 = 7 μC, and Q3 = −5 μC. (a) Find the electric field at the location of Q1, due to Q2 and Q3. E→ = N/C (b) Use the electric field you calculated in part (a) to find the force on Q1. F→ = N (c) Find the electric field at location A, due to all three charges. E→ = N/C (d) An alpha particle (He2+, containing two protons and two neutrons) is released from rest at location A. Use your answer from part (c) to determine the initial acceleration of the alpha particle. (Use 6.646×10−27 kg for the mass of He2+.) a→ = m/s2
