The electric field generated by a point charge is given by:
where
is the Coulomb's constant
Q is the charge
r is the distance from the charge
We want to know the net electric field at the midpoint between the two charges, so at a distance of r=5.0 cm=0.05 m from each of them.
Let's calculate first the electric field generated by the positive charge at that point:
where the positive sign means its direction is away from the charge.
while the electric field generated by the negative charge is:
where the negative sign means its direction is toward the charge.
If we assume that the positive charge is on the left and the negative charge is on the right, we see that E1 is directed to the right, and E2 is directed to the right as well. This means that the net electric field at the midpoint between the two charges is just the sum of the two fields:

Answer:
(A) Distance will be equal to 1.75 km
(B) Displacement will be equal to 1.114 km
Explanation:
We have given circumference of the circular track = 3.5 km
Circumference is given by
r = 0.557 km
(a) It is given that car travels from southernmost point to the northernmost point.
For this car have to travel the distance equal to semi perimeter of the circular track
So distance will be equal to
(b) If car go along the diameter of the circular track then it will also go from southernmost point to the northernmost point. and it will be equal to diameter of the track
So displacement will be equal to d = 2×0.557 = 1.114 m
