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 | =Ă‚Â Ă‚Â N/C |
| Ey | =Ă‚Â Ă‚Â N/C |
(b) Determine the magnitude and direction of the electric field atthis point.
| magnitude     | N/C |
