PROBLEM 2: Two charges q1 = +5 µC and q2 = +8.5 µC are separated by a distance of 15 cm. Point P is located along the line segment joining the two charges. How far is point P from q1, if the magnitude of the electric field at point P due to the two charges is equal to zero? Draw a sketch of the problem and label appropriately.
