Physics

In a rectangular coordinate system, a positive point charge q =8.00 nC is placed at the point x = +0.150 m, y = 0, and anidentical point charge is placed at x = -0.150 m, y = 0. Find theelectric field at the following points.

a. Find the x and y components of the electric field at x =0.150 m, y = -0.400 m. (Units N/C)

b. Find the magnitude of the electric field at x = 0.150 m, y =-0.400 m. (Units N/C)

c. Find the direction of the electric field at x = 0.150 m, y =-0.400 m. (Units degrees)
