A uniform electric field is indicated by electric field lines in the figure. The electric field magnitude is 850 V/m. A charge (-120µC) is moved along a
path from point "a" to point "b", and the length of the path is 10 centimeters. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force acting on
the charge as you move the charge along the path.
