Ok I have reviewed vector addition and I am coming up with 1.37x10^-7 N/C Pointing up from X. If anyone has worked this problem, can anyone confirm.

Ok for the top left (+) I have calculated a field E=k(1.6x10^-6)/(.005m)= 5.696x10^8 N/C This vector is pointing towards X. For the negative in the top. The quantity is negative same math. -5.696x10^8 N/C. The vector is going away. Adding these 2 = 0? or do you just add the magnitude. Then its...

top left + top right - bottom left - bottom right + x is mid point of top two

Ok after trying this and thinking of it like that don't the top 2 cancel out? and I am not sure how to add in the bottom two vector wise. The bottom twos vectors meet at point x in a equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, why does that not cancel out?

Homework Statement Four charges are arranged in a square. 2 Positive and 2 negative, in opposite corners. The magnitude is |1.6x10^-6 C|. The square's sides are 1 cm. A] At point X (Midpoint of of one of the sides. See Picture) Find the electric field direction and magnitude. B] What is the...
