Two equal magnitude electric charges are separated by a distance d. The electric potential at the midpoint between these two charges is zero. A student considering this situation says: "The electric field at the midpoint between the two charges will be zero also, since the two charges are opposite in sign, so the fields will equal but opposite, and add to zero." There is something wrong with the student's statement. Identify any problem(s) and explain how to correct it/them.

The charges under study are of the same sign

The calculation of the electric field for each charge separately, there is no relationship between the charges

Explanation:

Let's start by writing the equation for the electric field

          E = k q / r²

where q is the charge under analysis and r the distance from this charge to a positive test charge.

When analyzing the statement the student has some problems.

* The charges under study are of the same sign, it does not matter if positive or negative.

* The calculation of the electric field for each charge separately, there is no relationship between the charges for the calculation of the electric field.

* What is added is the interaction of the electric field with the positive test charge, in this case each field has the opposite direction to the other, so the vector sum gives zero

spare some change and give it to the poor

plz : ((

hi,

what occurs during a solar eclipse?

there are small tides across earth.

the moon is between earth and the sun.

p.s. im not sure if the first answer is correct because during a solar ecliphse there are spring tides and i dont know if they are the same.
