Please help: Calculate the electric field at the center of a square 52.5cm on a side if one corner is occupied by a +45uC charge and the other three occupied by -27uC charges.

sounds like physics bud

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

but i will help you anyway. you just need to find the NET electric field.

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

if you want me to help. . .

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

Do you know the formula for electric field?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it E=F(R)/Q ??

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

\[E= kq/r^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay. then?

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

does the question say the side length of the square is 52.5cm?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The question say: "at the center of a square 52.5cm on a side if one corner is occupied by a +45uC charge..."

OpenStudy (baldymcgee6):

okay, i'm going to assume the "side length" is 52.5cm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay. i think it is the length.
