Question

Point charges of 28.0 µC and 42.0 µC are placed 0.500 m apart. (a) At what point (in m) along the line connecting them is the electric field zero? m (from the smaller charge) (b) What is the magnitude (in N/C) and direction of the electric field halfway between them? magnitude N/C direction

Answer 1

Answer: a) electric field will be zero at zero meters apart

b) for smaller charge q, E = 6.048X10^6N/m towards away from the charge,

for bigger charge Q, E = 4.032X10^6N/m
