question 5

Multiple Choice

Two tiny particles having charges +20.0 ?C and -8.00 ?C are separated by a distance of 20.0 cm. What are the magnitude and direction of electric field midway between these two charges? (k = 1/4??₀ = 9.0 × 10⁹ N ? m²/C²)

• A)25.2 × \(10 ^ { 6 }\) N/C directed towards the negative charge
• B)25.2 × \(10 ^ { 6 }\) N/C directed towards the positive charge
• C)25.2 × \(10 ^ { 5 }\) N/C directed towards the negative charge
• D)25.2 × \(10 ^ { 5 }\) N/C directed towards the positive charge
• E)25.2 × \(10 ^ { 4 }\) N/C directed towards the negative charge
