Question

Part A

Find the total electric field (direction and magnitude) at the point A. Assume the plates are much larger than the distance AD.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Assume that the positive axis is directed to the right.

Part B

Find the total electric field (direction and magnitude) at the point B.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Assume that the positive axis is directed to the right.

Part C

Find the total electric field (direction and magnitude) at the point C.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Assume that the positive axis is directed to the right.

Part D

Find the total electric field (direction and magnitude) at the point D.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Assume that the positive axis is directed to the right.

EA= D C

a. field at A = ( 0.48 x 10^-6 +0.36 x 10^-6 -0.26 x 10^-6)/(2x8.854 x 10^-12)

= 3.275 x 10^4 N/C

b. field at B =( - 0.48 x 10^-6 +0.36 x 10^-6 -0.26 x 10^-6)/(2x8.854 x 10^-12)

= - 2.146 x 10^4 N/C

c. field at C =( - 0.48 x 10^-6 +0.36 x 10^-6 +0.26 x 10^-6)/(2x8.854 x 10^-12)

= 0.79 x 10^4 N/C

d. field at D =( - 0.48 x 10^-6 -0.36 x 10^-6 +0.26 x 10^-6)/(2x8.854 x 10^-12)

= - 3.275 x 10^4 N/C
