In Fig. 21-28a, three positively charged particles are fixed on an x axis. Particles Band C are so close to lilT ,,~ d~ d 3" 2,,1 d/ ,,~ (a) (b) Fig. 21-27 17. ------@@__--... ~~@--x A Be (a) each other that they can be consid- ...

In Fig. 21-28b, particle B has been moved to the opposite side of A but is still at the same distance from it. The net force on A is now 2.877 X 10 -24 N in the negative direction of the x axis. What is the ratio qClqB?
