उत्तर

Given: qA = qB = qC = 10 × 10-8 C

Force on B due to A,

`vec"F"_"BA"=1/(4πε_0)("q"_"A""q"_"B")/(("r"_"AB"^2))`

= `9 × 10^9xx((10xx10^-8)^2)/(20xx10^-2)^2`

= 2.25 × 10−3 N

Force on B due to C,

`vec"F"_"BC"=1/(4πε_0)("q"_"C""q"_"B")/(("r"_"BC"^2))`

= `9xx10^9xx((10xx10^-8)^2)/(15xx10^-2)^2`

= 4 × 10−3 N

∴ Resultant force on point B,

|FB| = `sqrt("F"_"BA"^2+"F"_"BC"^2+2"F"_"BA"."F"_"BC"cos 90)`

= `sqrt((2.25xx10^-3)^2+(4xx10^-3)^2)`

= 4.589 × 10−3 N

Force exerted on charge at point B is 4.589 × 10−3 N.
