In which of the regions, A, B, or C, will there be a point at which the net electric field due to these two charges is zero? All three regions. Only region B. Only region C. Only regions A and C. Only region A.

The figure shows two concentric rings, of radii R and R′ = 2.61R, that lie on the same plane. Point P lies on the central z axis, at distance D = 2.60R from the center of the rings. The smaller ring has uniformly distributed charge Q = 5.00×10−6 C. What is the uniformly distributed charge on the larger ring if the net electric field at P is zero? Number Units

Consider the following. (a) Red blood cells often become charged and can be treated as point charges. Healthy red blood cells are negatively charged, but unhealthy cells (due to the presence of a bacteria, for example) can become positively charged. In the figure, three red blood cells are oriented such that they are located on the corners of an equilateral triangle. The red blood cell charges are A = 1.70 pC, B = 7.40 pC, and C = −4.50 pC. Given these charges, what would the magnitude and direction of the electric field be at cell A? magnitude N/C direction counterclockwise from the +x axis (b) If the charge of cell A were doubled, how would the electric field at cell A change? The magnitude of the field would be halved. The field would be unchanged. The magnitude of the field would be quadrupled. The magnitude of the field would be doubled.
