Question

Consider the dipole in Figure 7.20 with the charge magnitude of q=3.0nCq=3.0nC and separation distance d=4.0cm.d=4.0cm. What is the potential at the following locations in space? (a) (0, 0, 1.0 cm); (b) (0, 0, –5.0 cm); (c) (3.0 cm, 0, 2.0 cm).

 

 

I am not sure how they book got the numbers in the denominater like .07, .03, .05. can someone explain this to me?
