A charge q1 = 5.00 nC is placed at the origin of an xy-coordinate system, and a charge q2 = -4.00 nC is placed on the positive x axis at =x= 4.00 cm.
(a) If a third charge q3 = 5.50 nC is now placed at the point x= 4.00 cm , y= 3.00 cm find the x and y components of the total force exerted on this charge by the other two charges.
(b) Find the magnitude of this force.
(c) Find the direction of this force (in degrees below the + x-axis).
