a) at the midpoint between 2 rings?
should the E just be added together but using r=10cm?
OpenStudy (earthcitizen):
\[E=F/Q\]

found the answer on cramster step by step but not understanding the r:
Electric field due to charged ring E = KQx / [ x ^ 2 + R^2 ] ^ 1.5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(x^2+R^2)^1.3??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oops 1.5

first convert cm to m
OpenStudy (anonymous):
right

and +40nC=+
OpenStudy (anonymous):
+40*10^-9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
answer says it should be 0 cuz they cancel each other but i thought it would double since both rings are +
OpenStudy (earthcitizen):
both rings are either + /-

i actually understand now from the set up on cramster except for the part that is raised to 1.5...typo? should be .5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
o charge density for ring=Q/(x^2+r^2)^1.5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i mean Q/(2pi*r)
OpenStudy (earthcitizen):
r=d/2

d=0.1m/2 = 0.05m
