Coulomb's Law: Three Point Charges Are Placed on the X-Axis

Short Answer

Coulomb's law: Three point charges are placed on the x-axis. A charge of +2.0 μC is placed at the origin, -2.0 μC to the right at x = 50 cm, and +4.0 μC at the 100 cm mark. What are the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force that acts on the charge at the origin? (k = 1/4πε₀ = 8.99 × 10⁹ N ∙ m²/C²)
