Question: ( 2 0 pts ) Three charges are placed at the corners of a square as shown below, where qo and d are fixed parameters

(20 pts) Three charges are placed at the corners of a square as shown below, where qo and d are fixed parameters and q2 is unknown.
q1=-2q0
2+del2=c2
4+n=c2
a. If q0=3.00C and d=5.00cm, what charge q2 is required to produce zero acceleration on an electron placed at the bottom-right corner of the square?
ma=kq2qe82
=nq2qe82me
i1meq+q82
120
b. What is the potential energy of the electron placed at the bottom-right corner of the square (if we choose to set the potential energy at infinity equal to zero)?
