Answer:
a)
The direction will be negative direction.
b)
The direction will be positive direction.
Explanation:
Given that
q1 = +7.7 µC is at x1 = +3.1 cm
q2 = -19 µC is at x2 = +8.9 cm
We know that electric filed due to a charge given as
Now by putting the va;ues
a)
The net electric field
The direction will be negative direction.
As we know that electric filed line emerge from positive charge and concentrated at negative charge.
b)
Now
distance for charge 1 will become =5.5 - 3.1 = 2.4 cm
distance for charge 2 will become =8.9-5.5 = 3.4 cm
The net electric field
The direction will be positive direction.
