Two charged particles are located on the x axis. The first is a charge 1Q at x 5 2a. The second is an unknown charge located at x 5 13a. The net electric field these charges produce at the origin has a magnitude of 2keQ /a2. Explain how many values are possible for the unknown charge and find the possible values.

Q_2 = +/- 295.75*Q

Explanation:

Given:

- The charge of the first particle Q_1 = +Q

- The second charge = Q_2

- The position of first charge x_1 = 2a

- The position of the second charge x_2 = 13a

- The net Electric Field produced at origin is E_net = 2kQ / a^2

Find:

Explain how many values are possible for the unknown charge and find the possible values.

Solution:

- The Electric Field due to a charge is given by:

E = k*Q / r^2

Where, k: Coulomb's Constant

Q: The charge of particle

r: The distance from source

- The Electric Field due to charge 1:

E_1 = k*Q_1 / r^2

E_1 = k*Q / (2*a)^2

E_1 = k*Q / 4*a^2

- The Electric Field due to charge 2:

E_2 = k*Q_2 / r^2

E_2 = k*Q_2 / (13*a)^2

E_2 = +/- k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

- The two possible values of charge Q_2 can either be + or -. The Net Electric Field can be given as:

E_net = E_1 + E_2

2kQ / a^2 = k*Q_1 / 4*a^2 +/- k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

- The two equations are as follows:

1: 2kQ / a^2 = k*Q / 4*a^2 + k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

2Q = Q / 4 + Q_2 / 169

Q_2 = 295.75*Q

2: 2kQ / a^2 = k*Q / 4*a^2 - k*Q_2 / 169*a^2

2Q = Q / 4 - Q_2 / 169

Q_2 = -295.75*Q

- The two possible values corresponds to positive and negative charge Q_2.
