Physics

A point particle with charge

q = 4.2 ?C

is placed on the x axis at

x = ?10 cm

and a second particle of charge

Q = 7.8 ?C

is placed on the x axis at

x = +25 cm.

(a) Determine the x and y components of theelectric field due to this arrangement of charges at the point

(x, y) = (10, 10)

(the units here are centimeters).

Ex=  N/C
Ey=  N/C


(b) Determine the magnitude and direction of the electric field atthis point.

magnitude     N/C
