Part 1

 Given:
 k = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2
 q3 = -8 µC = -8 x 10^-6 C
 q2 = +6 µC = +6 x 10^-6 C
 r = 0.3 m
 Find:
 F 32 = ?
 Solution:
 F 32 = [(k)(q3q2)]/(r^2)
 F 32 = [(9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2)(-8 x 10^-6 C)(+6 x 10^-6 C)]/(0.3 m)^2
 F 32 = -4.8 N
 Final answer:
 F 32 = -4.8 N

Part 2
  Given:
 k = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2
 q3 = -8 µC = -8 x 10^-6 C
 q1 = -16 µC = -16 x 10^-6 C = -1.6 x 10^-5 C
 r = 0.9 m
 Find:
 F 31 = ?
 Solution:
 F 31 = [(k)(q3q1)]/(r^2)
 F 31 = [(9 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2)(-8 x 10^-6 C)(-1.6 x 10^-5 C)]/(0.9 m)^2
 F 31 = 1.42 N
 Final answer:
 F 31 = +1.42 N

FINAL ANSWER:

 Given:
 F 32 = -4.8 N
 F 31 = +1.42 N
 Find:
 F net = ?
 Solution:
 F net = F 32+ F 31
 F net = -4.8 N + (+1.42 N)
 F net=−3.38 N
 Final answer:
 F net=−3.38 N
