Three negative point charges lie along a line as shown. Point P lies 6.00cm from the q2 charge measured perpendicular to the line connecting the three charges. Assume that q1= -4.60μC and q2= -1.60μC
- A. Find the magnitude of the electric field this combination of charges produces at point P. Express your answer in newtons per coulomb to three significant figures.
- B. Find the direction of the electric field this combination of charges produces at point P.

The standard fields are directed inwards for positive charges and to the right for negative charge.♦ Relevant knowledgeThe magnitude of the electric field caused by charge Q, at the separation of r away from it is determined by the following relation:
