Two Thin 80

question 20

Essay

Two thin 80.0-cm rods are oriented at right angles to each other.Each rod has one end at the origin of the coordinates,and one of them extends along the +x-axis while the other extends along the +y-axis.The rod along the +x-axis carries a charge of -15.0 µC distributed uniformly along its length,and the other rod carries +15.0 µC uniformly over its length.Find the magnitude and direction of the net electrical force that these two rods exert on an electron located at the point (40.0 cm,40.0 cm).(e = 1.60 × 10^-19 C,ε₀ = 8.85 × 10^-12 C²/N ∙ m²)
