Physics

Place 4 charges at the corners of a square which is 2 meters by2 meters (4 large squares along each length). Place two +1 nCcharges at adjacent corners and two -1 nC charges at the other twocorners.

Determine the direction of the electric field at the followingthree points:
Point E halfway between two like charges. (-120 degrees, 50V/m)
Point F halfway between two opposite charges. (-90.5 degrees, 309V/m)
Point G at the center of the square. (90 degrees, 210 V/m)

1. For the points E, F and G, draw a diagram showing bothcharges and the two individual field vectors (one for each charge)and explain why their vector sum points in the direction thatyou.

2. Determine the electric potential at the points E, F and G.List them numerically and give an explanation for theirvalue
