Two small insulating spheres with radius 8.50×10-² m are separated by a large center-to-center distance of 0.505 m. One sphere is negatively charged, with net charge -1.30 μC, and the other sphere is positively charged, with net charge 3.65 μC. The charge is uniformly distributed within the volume of each sphere. What is the magnitude E of the electric field midway between the spheres? Take the permittivity of free space to be €0 = 8.85x10-12 C²/(N·m²).
