1. Two charged particles, one with a charge of - 2 μC located on the origin of an axis system and a
second with a charge of +3 μC located at x = 4 m are exerting a force on each other. Determine the
magnitude of the force.
Solution:

2. Find the electric field acting on a 2.0 C charge if an electrostatic force of 1, 400 N acts on the
particle.
Solution:
