Particles A and C are fixed on the x-axis, but particle B can be moved along a circle centered on particle A. During the movement, a radial line between A and B makes an angle θ relative to the positive direction of the x-axis (Fig. b). The curves in Fig. c give, for two situations, the magnitude Fnet of the net electrostatic force on particle A due to the other particles. That net force if given as a function of angle θ and as a multiple of a basic amount F0. For example on curve 1, at θ=180∘ we see that Fnet=2F0. (a) For the situation corresponding to curve 1, what is the ratio of the charge of particle C to that of particle B (including sign)? (b) For the situation corresponding to curve 2, what is that ratio?
