There are only two charged particles in a particular region. Particle 1 carries a charge of 3q and is located on the negative x-axis a distance d from the origin. Particle 2 carries a charge of -2q and is located on the positive x-axis a distance d from the origin. Required:
Where is it possible to have the net field caused by these two charges equal to zero?

The net field will be the sum of the fields created by each charge.

where the charge Q in a position r' is given by:

E(r) = k*Q/(r - r')^2

Where k is a constant, and r is the point where we are calculating the electric field.

Then for the charge 3q, in the position r₁ = (-d, 0, 0) the electric field will be:

E₁(r) = k*3q/(r - r₁)^2

While for the other charge of -2q in the position r₂ = (d, 0, 0)

The electric field is:

E₂(r) = -k*2*q/(r - r₂)^2

Then the net field at the point r is:

E(r) = E₁(r) + E₂(r) = k*3q/(r - r₁)^2 + -k*2*q/(r - r₂)^2

E(r) = k*q*( 3/(r - r₁)^2 - 2/(r - r₂)^2)

Then if the we want to find the points r = (x, y, z) such that:

E(r) = 0 = k*q*( 3/(r - r₁)^2 - -k*2*q/(r - r₂)^2)

Then we must have:

0 = ( 3/(r - r₁)^2 - 2/(r - r₂)^2)

Also remember that the distance between two points:

(x, y, z) and (x', y', z') is given by:

D = √( (x - x')^2 + (y - y)^2 + (z -z')^2)

Then we can rewrite:

r - r₁ = √( (x - (-d))^2 + (y - 0 )^2 + (z -0)^2)

       = √( (x + d))^2 + y^2 + z^2)

and

r - r₂ =  √( (x - d)^2 + (y - 0 )^2 + (z -0)^2)

       = √( (x - d))^2 + y^2 + z^2)

Replacing that in our equation we get:

0 = ( 3/(√( (x + d))^2 + y^2 + z^2))^2 - -k*2*q/(√( (x - d))^2 + y^2 + z^2))^2)

0 = (3/((x + d))^2 + y^2 + z^2) - 2/ (x - d))^2 + y^2 + z^2)

We want to find the values of x, y, z such that the above equation is true.

2/ (x - d))^2 + y^2 + z^2) = (3/((x + d))^2 + y^2 + z^2)

2*[((x + d))^2 + y^2 + z^2] = 3*[(x - d))^2 + y^2 + z^2]

2*(x + d)^2  + 2*y^2 + 2*z^2 = 3*(x - d)^2 + 3*y^2 + 3*z^2

2*(x + d)^2 - 3*(x - d)^2 =  3*y^2 + 3*z^2 -  2*y^2 - 2*z^2

2*(x + d)^2 - 3*(x - d)^2  = y^2 + z^2

2*x^2 + 2*2*x*d + 2*d^2 -  3*x^2 + 3*2*x*d - 3*d^2 = y^2 + z^2

-x^2 + 10*x*d - d^2 = y^2 + z^2

we can rewrite this as:

- ( x^2 - 10*x*d + d^2) =  y^2 + z^2

now we can add and subtract 24*d^2 inside the parenthesis to get

- ( x^2 - 10*x*d + d^2 + 24*d^2 - 24*d^2) =  y^2 + z^2

-( x^2 - 2*x*(5d) + 25d^2 - 24d^2) = y^2 + z^2

-(x^2 - 2*x*(5d) + (5*d)^2) + 24d^2 = y^2 + z^2

The thing inside the parenthesis is a perfect square:

-(x - 5d)^2 + 24d^2 = y^2 + z^2

we can rewrite this as:

24d^2 = y^2 + z^2 + (x - 5d)^2

This equation gives us the points (x, y, z) such that the electric field is zero.

Where we need to replace two of these values to find the other, for example, if y = z = 0

24d^2 = (x - 5d)^2

√(24d^2)  = x - 5d

√24*d = x - 5d

√24*d + 5d = x

so in the point (√24*d + 5d, 0, 0) the net field is zero.

this is an example of "committed" time.

committed time, as contracted time, takes need over essential and available time since it is seen as profitable work. it alludes to the time allotted to keep up a home and family. at the point when a man is commuting using committed time this individual may feel that the drive is an obligation to family, for example, strolling youngsters to class or driving a mate to work. contracted and committed time clients may feel that their commute could really compare to the commute of important or leisure time clients on the grounds that their commute is profitable work. in this manner, they might be more disposed to pick a mechanized method of movement.
