Can an Eldritch Archer Magus use Ranged Spell Combat, Ranged Spellstrike, and Rapid Shot at the same time?
For example. A level 8 magus full attacks. She uses ranged spell strike and ranged spell combat to channel a magus spell with a normal ranged touch attack into an extra attack at the highest attack bonus. Thus the attack routine would be
Full Bab -2 spellstrike/Full bab -2 first attack/Full bab -7 iterative.
Can this be combine with rapid shot to get
Full Bab -4 spellstrike/Full bab -4 first attack/ Full bab -4 rapid shot/Full bab -9 iterative.
Further, can the magus use a cantrip like acid splash to fuel the ranged spell strike/spell combat?

Sure. It's balanced considering the Eldritch Archer has **** accuracy.

Yes, cantrips are specifically noted to be eligible for a regular spell strike, there's no reason that wouldn't apply to ranged spell strike.
As for rapid shot, almost certainly. Spell combat has errata stating that it counts as a full attack action for the purposes of "haste and other effects".

And if that's not good enough for you, you can make it the martial part of an Arcane Archer Eldritch Knight, and whore the crap out of high level buffs.
