Two particles are fixed to an x axis: particle 1 of charge −1.50 ✕ 10−7 c at x = 6.00 cm, and particle 2 of charge +1.50 ✕ 10−7 c at x = 27.0 cm. midway between the particles, what is their net electric field? (express your answer in vector form.) e = −244897.96i correct: your answer is correct. n/c

Answer :

Explanation :

Given that,

Charge of particle 1 =  

Distance x = 6 cm

Charge of particle 2 =

Distance x = 27 cm

Total distance =

Particle 1 is at (6,0) and particle 2 is at (27,0) .

Therefore, midway (16.5, 0)

Now,

Formula of electric field

Now, the the electric field due to  particle 1

Similarly, the electric field due to particle 2

Resultant Electric field

Hence, this is the required answer.
