A 2.00 nC point charge is fixed on the x-axis at x = 5.00 cm. A -4.00 nC point charge is fixed on the x-axis at x = -3.00 cm.
a) Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field at a point on the y-axis where y = +2.00 cm.
b) If a -3.00 nC point charge is placed on the y-axis at y =+2.00 cm, what is the magnitude and direction of the electric force on the charge?
c) How much work does the electric field do if the -3.00 nC charge is moved along the y-axis from y = +2.00 cm to the origin (x = y = 0)?
