Question

For starters, calculate the magnitude and direction of the electric field due only to charge q₁ at this point.

Three charges, qi -+2.84nC, q21.30nC, and q3+9.39nC, are at the corners of an equilateral triangle, each of whose sides are of length, L, as shown in the figure below 2 The angle a is 60.0° and L = 0.500 m, we are interested in the unmarked point midway between the charges q1 and q2 on the x axis.

Now calculate the magnitude of the electric field from all three charges at a point midway between the two charges on the x axis.

Calculate the angle of the electric field relative to the positive (to the right) x-axis, with positive values up (counterclock-wise) and negative down (clockwise). (enter the answer with units of deg)

If a tiny particle with a charge q= 1.07nC were placed at this point midway between q₁ and q₂, what is the magnitude of the force it would feel?
