Լուծում.
There are two coulomb forces act on charge B, Coulomb force between charge A and B (FAB) and Coulomb force between charge B and C (FBC). Coulomb force experienced by charge B is net force of FAB և ՖBC.
Coulomb force between charge A and B :

Charge A signed positive and charge B signed positive so that FAB points to charge C.
Coulomb force between charge B and C :

Charge B signed positive and charge C signed positive so that FBC points to charge A.
Coulomb force experienced by charge B :
FB =BC - ՖAB = 180 – 90 = 90 Ն
Coulomb force experienced by charge B (FB) is 90 Newton. The direction of FB same as the direction of FBC points to charge A.
