Two point charges q1 and q2 are held in place 4.50 cm apart. Another point charge Q = -1.85 mC, of mass 5.50 g, is initially located 3.00 cm from both of these charges and released from rest. You observe that the initial acceleration of Q is 314 m>s2 upward, parallel to the line connecting the two point charges. Find q1 and q2.

Answer:

[tex]q_1 = 6.22 \times 10^{-11} C[/tex]

[tex]q_2 = -6.22 \times 10^{-11} [/tex]

Explanation:

Force on the charge Q = -1.85 mC is along the line joining the two charges

so here we can say that net force on it is given by

[tex]F = ma[/tex]

[tex]F = (0.00550)(314)[/tex]

[tex]F = 1.727 N[/tex]

Now this is the force due to two charges which are in same magnitude but opposite sign

so this force is given as

[tex]F = 2\frac{kq_1q}{r^2} cos\theta[/tex]

here we know that

[tex]F = 2\frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.85 \times 10^{-3})(q)}{0.03^2}cos\theta[/tex]

here we know that

[tex]cos\theta = \frac{2.25}{3} = 0.75[/tex]

now we have

[tex]1.727 = 2\frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.85 \times 10^{-3})(q)}{0.03^2}(0.75)[/tex]

[tex]1.727 = 2.775 \times 10^{10} q[/tex]

[tex]q = 6.22 \times 10^{-11} C[/tex]

The values of charge 1 and charge 2 are [tex]q_{1}=9.30 \times 10^{-11} \;\rm C[/tex]  and  [tex]q_{2} = 2.10 \times 10^{-10} \;\rm C[/tex] respectively.

Given data:

The distance between the charges is, d = 4.50 cm = 0.045 m.

The magnitude of third charge is, [tex]Q=-1.85 \; \rm mC=-1.85 \times 10^{-3} \;\rm C[/tex].

The mass of third charge is, m = 5.50 g = 0.00550 kg.

The distance of third charge from other charges is, d' = 3.00 cm = 0.03 m.

The acceleration of third charge is, [tex]a=314 \;\rm m/s^{2}[/tex].

The force on third charge due to other charges is,

[tex]F = ma\\F=0.00550 \times 314\\F = 1.727 \;\rm N[/tex]

Since, the above force is of same in magnitude but opposite to electrostatic force on charge [tex]q_{1}[/tex] and [tex]q_{2}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]F=-F'\\F= -(k\dfrac{Q \times q_{1}}{d'^{2}}) \\\\1.727= -(9 \times 10^{9} \times \dfrac{-1.85 \times 10^{-3}\times q_{1}}{0.03^{2}})\\\\ q_{1}=9.30 \times 10^{-11} \;\rm C[/tex]

The force between the third charge and second charge is,

[tex]F = -F''\\1.727=-\dfrac{k \times Q \times q_{2}}{d^{2}}\\\\1.727=-\dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times -1.85 \times 10^{-3} \times q_{2}}{0.045^{2}}\\\\q_{2} = 2.10 \times 10^{-10} \;\rm C[/tex]

Thus, the values of charge 1 and charge 2 are [tex]q_{1}=9.30 \times 10^{-11} \;\rm C[/tex]  and  [tex]q_{2} = 2.10 \times 10^{-10} \;\rm C[/tex] respectively.
