Physics

In a rectangular coordinate system, a positive point charge5.0nC is placed at x=2cm, y=0cm and a negative point charge -5.0nCis placed at x=-2cm,y=0cm. Point P is at x=2cm, y=3cm

K=8.99 x 10^9 (Nxm^2)/C^2

a) Calculate the magnitude of the force between the positivecharge and negative charge

b) Draw the electric field vector at point P, caused by thepositive charge. Find its magnitude

c) Draw the electric field vector at point P, caused by thenegative charge. Find its magnitude

d) Determine the magnitude and direction of the net electricfield vector at point P

e) If a charge q=-4.0nC with a mass 2.0 x 10^-6 kg is releasedfrom rest at point P, what is its acceleration?

f) Calculate the electric potential at point P
