PLEASE SHO W WORK Two point charges of + and - 10 nC are separated by 8 cm along the horizontal axis. The negative charge lies to the left, the positive charge to the right. A) Compute the magnitude and direction of the electric field E at a point exactly 4 cm above the midpoint of a line between the charges (4 cm along a vertical axis). B) Now move to a point 4 METERS directly above the line of charges and again calculate the magnitude and direction of the E field. (Hint: use a dipole approximation for ease of calculation. See notes.)
