Two point charges q110 μC and q2-25 μC are placed on the x -axis at x=1 m and x=4 m respectively. The electric field in V/m at a point y=3 m on y-axis is,

Take 14πϵ0=9×109 N m2C-2
  1. -81 i^+81 j^×102
  2. 81 i^-81 j^×102
  3. -63 i^+27 j^×102
  4. 63i^-27j^×102

Solution

Electric field due to 10 μC


E1=14π010×10-6r13 r1

=14π010×10-6103-i^+3j^

Similarly, electric field due to -25 μC

E2=14π025×10-6534i^-3j^

Net electric field, 
E=9×109×10-6-i^10+3j^10+45i^-35j^

=9×1037i^10-3j^10

=63i^-27j^×102 NC
