Two point charges q1 and q2 are fixed at the two corners of a square, as shown in the figure. The length of each side of the square is 0.5 m.  A negative charge of q= -0.5μC is placed at corner A.

-0.5uC 0.5 41 +5.00uC 2.60uC

a) Determine the magnitude and the direction of the electric force F1 exerted on charge q by charge q1.

b) Determine the magnitude and the direction of the electric force F2 exerted on charge q by charge q2.

c) Determine the magnitude and the direction of the NET electric force exerted on charge q. Mark the net electric force vector on the figure.

Now solve in a new way: First don't put charge q at corner A yet. (As shown in figure 2)

91 +5.00uC -2.60uC

d) Determine the magnitude and direction of the electric field E1 at the corner A produced by charge q1.

e) Determine the magnitude and direction of the electric field E2 at the corner A produced by charge q2.

f) Determine the magnitude and direction of the net electric field at the corner A. Mark the net electric field vector on the figure.
