LAST QUESTION (see attachment)

OpenStudy (idkwut):

Consider a point located equidistant from point charges A and B, labeled C in the diagram. If A and B have the same magnitude charge, and are both negative, which way does the electric field vector point at C?

Up, down, right, or left? @Nali @PsiSquared

If you draw field lines for both you can add them together. In doing so you that point c is equally pulled toward A and B. As a matter of fact, you can draw line perpendicular to the line connecting A and B that passes through that midpoint of the connecting line between A and B. Everywhere along that line, C is pulled equally to A and B. Given that, what do you think the answer is?

up... lol.
