Question

What is the direction of the electric field at a point midway between two equal-magnitude, positively charged objects placed at grid locations (-1.0 m, 0.0 m) and (+1.0 m, 0.0 m)? in the +y direction O in the -x direction in the +x direction in the -y direction no direction since E O

Answer 1

Since the two charged object have postive charges with equal magnitudes, so the electric filed midway betweent the two will be zero.

Because the field due to the two charged object will be euqal in magnitude and opposite in direction. So they will cancel out and net electric field will be zero.

So correct option is

●no direction since E = 0
