Point P1, the intersection of the three bisectors, locates the geometric center
of the triangle and is one point where the electric field is zero. On Figure 1
above, draw the electric field vectors EA, EB, and Ec at P1, due to each of the
three charges. Be sure your arrows are drawn to reflect the relative
magnitude of the fields.

three point charges. Indicate below whether the magnitude of each of these
vectors is greater than, less than, or the same as for point P1.

Explain why the x-component of the total electric field is zero at any point on
the y-axis.
