Electric Field Due to Two Charges Two charges + Q and -Q are kept at points `(-x_(2),0)` and `(x_(1),0)` respectively, in the XY plane. Find the magnitude and direction of the net electric field at the origin (0,0).
To find the electric field intensity at a point due to two charges, first of all find the individual electric field due to both charges and then find the resultant field by using vector addition.
