Illustration 1.28
Two point charges Qa and Qb are positioned at points A and B. The field strength to the right of charge Qb on line that passes through two charges varies according to a law that is represented schematically in the figure accompanying the problem (without employing a definite scale). The field strength is assumed to be positive if its direction coincides with the positive direction of x-axis. The distance between the charges is l=21cm. Find
- the signs of the charges.
- the ratio of the absolute values of charges Qa and Qb.
- the coordinate x of the point where the field strength is maximum.
