Question

Figure a below shows two charged particles fixed in place on an x axis with separation L. The ratio q1/q2 of their charge magnitudes is 4.50. Figure b shows the x component Enet,x of their net electric field along the x axis just to the right of particle 2. The x axis scale is set by xs = 31.2 cm.
