A +ve point charge of magnitude q is located on the y−axis
at a point of y=+d and another −ve charge of same magnitude
is located on the point y=−d.
A third +ve charge of same magnitude is located
at some point on x−axis.
(1)− what is the magnitude and direction of the force on
third charge ?
(a)− when its located on the origin.
(b)− when its coordinate is x.
(2)− show that when x is large compared to distance d,
the force in (b) is inversely proportionalto the
cube of the distance from origin.
