To find the electric field and potential at the center of a square with side length \( d = 10 \, \text{cm} \) and four identical charges \( q = 2 \, \mu\text{C} \) located at the corners, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Configuration We have a square with four corners, each occupied by a charge of \( 2 \, \mu\text{C} \). The distance from the center of the square to each corner can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem. ### Step 2: Calculate the Distance from the Center to a Corner The distance \( r \) from the center of the square to any corner can be calculated as follows: \[ ...
