Question

How do you get c and d?

A positive charge of magnitude Q1 = 0.85 nC is located at the origin. A negative charge Q2 = −7.5 nC is located on the positive x-axis at = 15.5 cm from the origin. The point P is located at = 6.5 cm above the charge Q2.

a) Sketch the directions of Q1, Q2, and on the figure. Make sure to label your arrows.

b) Determine the magnitudes of E1 and E2 at point P.

c) Determine the x and y components of E1 at point P.

d) Determine the x and y components of E2 at point P.

e) Determine the magnitude and direction of the net electric field at point P due to the two charges.

Answer 1

of the net electric field at point P due to the two charges.
