1. Three point charges are fixed in place in a right triangle. (a) What is the
electric force on the −0.60-μC charge due to the other two charges? (b) What
is the electric force on the +1.0-μC charge due to the other two charges?

2. Find the direction and magnitude of the net electrostatic force exerted on
the point charge q2 in the figure. Let q = +2.4 µC and d = 33 cm.
4. The drawing shows the charges are placed on the x and y axes. They are all
located at the same distance of 6.1 cm from the origin O. For each of the
situations in the drawing, determine the magnitude of the net electric field at
the origin.
