Two 1.20-m non-conducting rods meet at a right angle. One rod carries + 2.50 µC of charge distributed uniformly along its length, and the other carries -2.50 µC distributed uniformly along it (Fig. P21.87). (a) Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field these rods produce at point P, which is 60.0 cm from each rod. (b) If an electron is released at P, what are the magnitude and direction of the net force that these rods exert on it?
