Three point charges are located on a circular arc as shown in the figure below. (Take r 4.28 cm. Let to the right be the +x direction and up along the screen be the +y direction.) = +3.00 nC C -2.00 nC 30.0 30.0 = r +3.00 nC (a) What is the total electric field at P, the center of the arc? E N/C+0 N/C P (b) Find the electric force that would be exerted on a -5.08-nC point charge placed at P. F N+0 N Sin
