ring rod proton 20.0 cm A 10.0 cm diameter ring is uniformly charged to -20.0 nC. The center of the ring is located 20.0 cm from the center of a 10.0 cm long, thin rod. The rod is uniformly charged to +20.0 nC. What is the magnitude and direction of the net electric force acting on a proton located at the midpoint between the ring and the rod? Assume that the ring lies in a plane that is perpendicular to a line drawn from the ring's center to the center of the rod.
