Consider two charged particles that lay on the x-axis. Particle 1 (with charge
+q) sits at location (d, 0, 0). Particle 2 (with charge -2q) sits at location
(-d, 0, 0). Find the electric field as a function of the angle (θ) measured from
the x-axis for all points in the x-y plane that are a distance (2d) away from
the origin. (i.e. all the points on the circle with radius 2d).
