  EOx,EOy =   N/C   Find the electric field at the origin, point O. Now, assume that charge q2 is negative; What is the net electric field at the origin, point O?

Explanation / Answer

Field due to q2 = K*6x10-9/(92) = 2/3

Field due to q1 = K*8x10-9/(162) = 9 / 32

Both charges have the same sign, and thus they both push on the point O. Thus the net electric field of hte x component is

2/3 - 9/32 = 37/96 N / C

There is no elecrtiv field in the y component
