Answer:
[tex]r=200m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Charges:
[tex]Q_1=8.0mC[/tex]
[tex]Q_2=2.0mC[/tex]
[tex]Q_3=8.mC[/tex]
Distance [tex]d=300m[/tex]
Generally the equation for Force is mathematically given by
[tex]F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]F_{32}=F_{31}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{q_2}{(300-r)^2}=\frac{q_1}{r^2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2*10^{-3}}{(300-r)^2}=\frac{8*10^{-3}}{r^2}[/tex]
[tex]r=2(300-r)[/tex]
[tex]r=200m[/tex]
