Ans. a) Using Coulomb's law, we get the magnitude of the force, The force on the particle 2 is along the line joining the two charges.
b) To get the direction of the force on the particle 2 due to 1 we use trigonometric identities.
c) The particles must be collinear for the particle 2 be in equilibrium. The particle 2 has a negative charge and will be attracted by both charges. So the particle 1 and particle 3 must be on the opposite side of particle 2.
