    Work done by charge in electric field on the xyz plane

    Oh yeah good point. So W = -1.56 J. I guess I did it right?

    Work done by charge in electric field on the xyz plane

    So that means Since my ## \Delta \mathbf{r} ## = (0.065 i + 0.06 j -0.055 k) Therefore W = | (0.065 i + 0.06 j -0.055 k) ## \cdot ## 0.475 (143.08 i + 0 j + 228.97 k)| = |4.4176 - 5.9818| = 1.56 J Am I correct here? (btw Thanks for your quick responses)

    Work done by charge in electric field on the xyz plane

    Could you tell me if this is right? E = 270 Cos 58oi + 270 Cos 32ok = 143.08 i + 0 j + 228.97 k If that's my electric field I basically subtract the distance points to get (d) and put it in W = qE.d to get W. Then I can square the values, add them and square root it to get the magnitude of W?

    Work done by charge in electric field on the xyz plane

    Homework Statement There is a uniform electric field, E = 270 N/C, parallel to the xz plane, making an angle of 32o with the positive z axis and an angle of 58o with the positive x axis. A particle with charge q= 0.475 C is moved from the point (xi = 2.0 cm, yi = 0, zi = 0) to the point (xf =...
