Point charges of 28.0 µC and 43.0 µC are placed 0.500 m apart.

(a) At what point along the line connecting them is the electric field zero?

How are the electric fields due to each charge related? How can you put the two distances in terms of one distance? m (from the smaller charge)

(b) What are the magnitude and direction of the net electric field halfway between them?

magnitude     N/C
direction     ---Select--- toward the smaller charge toward the larger charge
