Question: Two charges, + q and - q , are located in the x - y plane at points ( 0 , + d / 2

Two charges, +q and -q, are located in the x-y plane at points (0,+d/2) and (0,-d/2), respectively. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field at point P with the superposition principle. Data: q =31.0 nC, d =4.60 mm and P is at x =92.0 mm.Two charges, +q and -q, are located in the x-y plane at points (0,+d2) and (0,-d2), respectively. Calculate the magnitude of the
electric field at point P with the superposition principle.
Data: a=31.0nCj,d=4.60mm and P is at x=92.0mm.
By the principle of linear superposition, the total electric field at position P is the vector sum of the electric field contribution from
charges +Q and -Q.

In the previous problem, you can get an approximate answer for the electric field at point P by using the electric dipole
approximation which is valid for the limit x>>d. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field at point P with this approximation and
the same values for Q,d and x as in the previous problem.
