Two curve plastic rods , one of charge +q and the other of charge -q, form a circle of radius R = 0.50 cm in an xy plane. The x axis passes through both of the connecting points, and the charge is distributed uniformly on both rods. If q = 15.0 pC, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (relative to the positive direction of the x axis) of the electric field produced at P, center of the circle. (c) If we change the plastic rod to copper rod calculate the electric field at point P. (2+2+1)
