Three charges are placed in the following locations: Q1 of -90.0µC at the origin; Q2 of +94.5µC at (0, 40.0 cm); and Q3 of +69.6 µC at (68.0 cm, 0).

a) Determine the total electric field at “P” located at (68.0 cm, 40.0 cm).

b) A fourth charge, q4 of +52.0 µC is placed at P. Find the total force on q4.

c) Determine the total potential V at P.

d) Does q4 have any electrical potential energy at P?

e) How much work is involved to move q4 from P to a new location “S” at (136 cm, 0)? Did the electric field do the work or was an outside agent involved to get q4 from P to S?

Please be as clear and detailed as possible, explaining each step if possible
