B5. The figure shows two stationary charges: +3.0 μC located at (2.0 cm, 0) and +3.0 μC located at (0, 2.0 cm). Consider a point P located at the origin (0, 0). Note: 1 μC = 1 x10−6 C. (a) Calculate the electric potential at P. Hint: You should get +2.7 x106 J/C (b) Calculate the electric field (magnitude and direction) at P. Hint: For the magnitude, you should get 9.546×107 N/C Consider placing a test charge Qtest = −2.0 μC at P. (c) Calculate the electric potential energy of the charge Qtest at P. Hint: Use the result from part (a). (d) Calculate the electric force on the charge Qtest at P (magnitude and direction). Hint: Use the result from part (b).
