Electric Field of Point-Charges: An electric dipole consists of charges of ±6.00 µC that are 10.0 cm apart, as shown in the figure. Find the magnitude and direction of the electric field this dipole produces at point P, which is 7.00 cm from each charge. (k = 1/4??0 = 8.99 × 109 N ? m2/C2)  

What will be an ideal response?


1.57 × 107 N/C, to the left parallel to the line connecting the two charges
