Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 9:**
The two charges in the figure are separated by \( d = 2.00 \, \text{cm} \). Find the electric potential at:
(a) point \( A \) and
(b) point \( B \), which is halfway between the charges.
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram shows a configuration of two point charges and two points of interest:
- The charge on the left is \( -15.0 \, \text{nC} \) (negative) and represented in blue.
- The charge on the right is \( 27.0 \, \text{nC} \) (positive) and represented in red.
- The distance \( d \) between the two charges is \( 2.00 \, \text{cm} \).
- Point \( A \) is located above the midpoint of the line connecting the two charges, forming an equilateral triangle with each side labeled \( d \).
- Point \( B \) is located halfway between the two charges on the horizontal line.
- The angle between the horizontal line and the line connecting to point \( A \) is \( 60.0^\circ \).
The task is to calculate the electric potential at points \( A \) and \( B \).
