Question

need help in solving this problem. Thank you

Three point charges are arranged as shown in the figure below. 5.00 nC 0.300 m 0.100 m 3.00 nC (a) Find the vector electric field that the q = 8.00 nC and-3.00 nC charges together create at the origin. N/Cj (b) Find the vector force on the 5.00 nC charge.

Answer 1

Here we use the field due to a given charge distribution at a required point. We also use the superposition principle to add the individual fields to find the resultant field. Also, the concept of force on a charged particle in an electric field is used.
