A Point Charge Q = -12 μC, and Two Other

question 3

Short Answer

A point charge Q = -12 μC, and two other charges q₂ and q₂, are placed on x-y axes as shown in the figure. The electric force components on charge Q are F_x = +0.005 N and Fy = -0.003 N. (k = 1/4πε₀ = 9.0 × 10⁹ N ∙ m²/C², e = 1.6 × 10^-19C)
(a) How many excess electrons are there in charge Q?
(b) What are the charges q1 and q2, including their signs?
