Two charges are placed on the x axis. One of the charges (q1 = +7.6ÂµC) is at x1 = +2.8 cm and the other (q2 = -22 ÂµC) is at x2 = +9.6cm.

(a) Find the net electric field (magnitude and direction) at x = 0cm. (Use the sign of your answer to indicate the direction alongthe x-axis.)

(b) Find the net electric field (magnitude and direction) at x =+6.2 cm. (Use the sign of your answer to indicate the directionalong the x-axis.)

Question

Two charges are placed on the x axis. One of thecharges(q₁ = +9.1ÂµC) is atx₁ = +3.2 cm and the other(q₂ =-22 ÂµC) is atx₂ = +9.2cm. (a)Find the net electric field (magnitude and direction) atx= 0 cm. (Use the sign of your answer to indicate thedirectionalong the x-axis.)
