Title: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: s.h_math on Jan 14, 2022 The question is
Three-point charges are placed at the corner of a right-angle triangle as shown. Calculate the magnitude of the net electric force on the object X marked X due to the other two charges. I am having trouble finding the magnitude for this question, would you mind helping me, Thanks a lot for your help.

I found a similar question, and solved it for you instead. Feel free to upload the actual image if it happens to be different.

Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: bio_man on Jan 16, 2022 That is the magnitude, what's highlighted. Magnitude is what you report without an angle. Do you mean you also need the angle?
Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: s.h_math on Jan 16, 2022 Yes that is what I mean. would you mind writing the degree answer with the magnitude together?
Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: bio_man on Jan 16, 2022 Sure:
tan(theta)=opp/adj=0.4/0.3 now take the inverse tan of 0.4/0.3 tan^(-1) (0.4/0.3) = 53.1 degrees Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: s.h_math on Jan 16, 2022 would oyu mind if you could add direction?
Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: bio_man on Jan 16, 2022 A direction is an angle 😄 I already did
Unless you have something else in mind? Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: s.h_math on Jan 16, 2022 I mean like if its N of S or W of N
Title: Re: Coulomb's law Worksheet Post by: bio_man on Jan 16, 2022 Oh... 53.1 degrees is the same as 36.9 east of north OR 53.1 north of east
