The discussion centers on calculating the charge required at the point (4.0m, 0) to ensure that the electric field at (4.0m, 3.0m) is zero, given two point charges, each of charge q, located at (0, 0) and (8.0m, 0). Participants emphasize the necessity for students to demonstrate their attempts at solving the problem before seeking help, adhering to the guidelines of the Physics Forums. This approach fosters a deeper understanding of electric fields and charge interactions.
PREREQUISITESThis discussion is beneficial for students studying electrostatics, particularly those preparing for exams or assignments involving electric fields and point charges. It is also useful for educators seeking to guide students in problem-solving techniques in physics.
I don't have yet my attempt solution . Our teacher gives this problem without teaching . will you please help me ?cnh1995 said:Welcome to PF!
Post this question in the homework help section and fill up the three part template provided there. You are supposed to show your attempt.
I'm afraid I can't. You need to fill up the template and show some effort.joerylee palmerola said:I don't have yet my attempt solution . Our teacher gives this problem without teaching . will you please help me ?
