The question is incomplete, we can notice that from from () in between the question.

The correct question is:

A particle of charge on the y-axis a distance a from the origin and a second particle of charge is on the x-axis a distance d from the origin. The magnitude of the x-component of the force on the second particle is:

Answer:

d=
(a)/(√(2) )

Step-by-step explanation:

given

distance from origin on y axis = a

distance from origin on x axis = d

attached is an equation that further explains how we got the answer

A particle of charge on the y-axis a distance ( ) from the origin and a second particle-example-1
