To find the magnitude of the electric field intensity at the point (0, 2 cm) due to the two point charges of +4 µC and -4 µC located at (-2 cm, 0) and (2 cm, 0) respectively, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the positions of the charges and the point of interest - Charge \( Q_1 = +4 \, \mu C \) is located at \( (-2 \, \text{cm}, 0) \). - Charge \( Q_2 = -4 \, \mu C \) is located at \( (2 \, \text{cm}, 0) \). - The point where we need to calculate the electric field is \( P(0, 2 \, \text{cm}) \). ### Step 2: Calculate the distances from each charge to the point P ...

Asserions: Two points charges +Q and -Q are fixed at point A(+a,0,0) and point B(-a,0,0) respectively.Then the magnitude of electric flux due to electric field of either point charge through infinite y-zplane (that is x=0 plane) is less than magnitude of net electric flux due to electric field of both charges through that plane ( x=0 plane) Reason :the magnitude of the net electric flux through a surface due to a system of point charges is equal to sum of magnitude of electric flux through that surface due to each of the point charge of the system.
