Question:
Three 1.0 nC charges are placed as shown in FIGURE P22.66. Each of these charges creates an electric field E at a point 3.0 cm in front of the middle charge.
a. What are the three fields E1, E2, and E3 created by the three charges? Write your answer for each as a vector in component form.b. Do you think that electric fields obey a principle of superposition?That is, is there a ??net field?? at this point given by Enet = E1 + E2 + E3? Use what you learned in this chapter and previously in our study of forces to argue why this is or is not true.
c. If it is true, what is Enet?
