Problem

A charge q1=+4.0 μCq_1 = +4.0\,\mu\text{C} is fixed at the origin. A second charge q2=+1.0 μCq_2 = +1.0\,\mu\text{C} experiences an electrostatic force F=(0.18i^+0.24j^) N\mathbf F = (0.18\hat i+0.24\hat j)\,\text{N} due to q1q_1 in vacuum. Determine the coordinates (x, y)(x,\,y) of q2q_2.
