solutions.
1. Two identical charged sodium ions separated by 2.3 x 10 -19 m have a force between them of
2.3 x 10 -10 N. What is the charge of each ion ?
2. Three positive charges of magnitude 1.2 µC are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangles
of sides 6 cm. What is the net force on a charge of - 2µC placed at the midpoint of one of the
sides ?
3. A charge Q= 20 µC is distributed uniformly over a thin ring of radius R. The ring is oriented in
the xy-plane, with its center at the origin. A charge q = 10 µC is located 50 cm away from the
center of the ring on the x-axis. A 1 Newton force is then produce by the point charge and
the ring. What is the radius of the ring ?
4. Charges q, 2q, -4q and -2q occupy the four corners of a square of sides 2L.
A test charge is put at the center of the square. What is the total electric field intensity at
the center of the square if q = 2 µC and L = 30 cm.?
