Two charges are placed on the x-axis: one is placed at x = 3 m and the other is at x = -3 m. The magnitude of both charges is 5 µC but the blue one (at x = -3 m) is positive while the red one (at x = +3 m) is negative 1.What is the x-component of the electric field at (x, y) = (0 m, +4 m)? 3) Now the positive and negative charge switch places. The magnitude of the charges is still 5 µC where the blue one (now at x = +3 m) is positive and the red one (now at x = -3 m) is negative. What is the x-component of the electric field at (x, y) = (0 m, +4 m)? 4)Now both charges (still at x = -3 m and x = +3 m) are positive. The magnitude of the charges is still 5 µC. What is the y-component of the electric field at (x, y) = (0 m, +4 m)? 5)Finally, both charges (still at x = -3 m and x = +3 m) are negative. The magnitude of the charges is still 5 µC. What is the y-component of the electric field at (x, y) = (0 m, +4 m)?
