Question 15: A charge q1 = +2.0 nC is located at the origin, and a second charge q2 = +4.0 nC is located at position x = d. a) At what position x will a q = −1 nC charge experience zero net force?
b) In part (a), you should have found two mathematical solutions. Using a sketch, explain how you know which one is the physical solution. (You may use the applet “mixed charges” to study the two situations.)


c) What physical situation does the other mathematical solution correspond to?
