Question

a) Determine both the potential at point A and the electric field at point A (both the magnitude and direction, the angle between the electric field and a horizontal or vertical reference line).

b) If you did not get an answer from the problem, use voltage 1500 V and electric field 60,000 N/C straight upward to answer the next question.

A small sphere with mass of 4.0 mg and a net charge of +5.0 nC is at point A, with a velocity of 2.5 m/s, directed to the right. What is the speed of the sphere when it is very far away from both charges? Assume the effects of gravity are negligible.
