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:
where
Q is the charge
r is the distance from the charge

The force on charge Y is the same as the force on charge X
Explanation:
We can answer this problem by applying Newton's third law of motion, which states that:
"When an object A exerts a force on object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"
In this problem, we can identify object A as charge X and object B as charge Y. The magnitude of the electrostatic force between them is given by
(1)
where:
is the Coulomb's constant
are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges
According to Newton's third law, therefore, the magnitude of the force exerted by charge X on charge Y is the same as the force exerted by charge Y on charge X (and it is given by eq.(1)), however their directions are opposite.
