Two equal charges of +10μC are placed in the vertices corresponding to the 45° angles. A negative, -20μC charge is placed at the 90° vertex. Find the electric field in the middle of the hypotenuse. You need to provide the magnitude of the field and the direction. For the direction use the angle between the electric field and the hypotenuse (the one less than 90°). Part A - What is the magnitude of the field at the point in the midle of the hypothenuse? μA Units Request Answer Part B - What is the angle between the total field and the hypothenuse?
