Consider a discrete distribution of charges such that three + chargesreside in an equilateral triangle of side r. Specifically, each charge occupyan edge, leaving no edge unoccupied. The following can be said aboutthe forces felt by one of these charges and the electric field at a point Raway from the triangle's center except-OThe force felt by a charge depends on the other two charges' magnitude and distancefrom it.OThe electric field at point R will be the summation of the electric fields from the threecharges.The force felt by a test charge at R will depend on the net force the system has due tothe three interacting charges.The force felt by a charge will likewise depend on the electric fields from the otherOtwo.

In this example, we will analyze the motion of an electron that is released in an electric field. The terminals of a 100 V battery are connected to two large, parallel, horizontal plates 1.0 cm apart. The resulting charges on the plates produce an electric field E in the region between the plates that is very nearly uniform and has magnitude E = 3.0×104 N/C. Suppose the lower plate has positive charge, so that the electric field is vertically upward, as shown in (Figure 1). (The thin pink arrows represent the electric field.)

In this problem, you have two charges q1=1µC and q2=-1.46µC (µC stands for "micro-Coulomb). You are asked to determine the value of the electric force at point P. q2 is located a distance of 6.53m to the left of P, and q1 is located a further 2.38m to the left of q2. If the net electric field at point P points to the left, then your value should be negative. If the value of the net electric field at point P is oriented to the right, then you value should be positive.
