Two point charges lie along the $y$ -axis. A charge of $q_{1}=$ $-9.0 \mu \mathrm{C}$ is at $y=6.0 \mathrm{~m}$, and a charge of $q_{2}=-8.0 \mu \mathrm{C}$ is at $y=-4.0 \mathrm{~m}$. Locate the point (other than infinity) at which the total electric field is zero.
A charge q1 = 7.0 μC is located at the origin, and a second charge q2 = -5.0 μC is located on the x axis, 0.30 m from the origin. Find the electric field at the point P, which has coordinates (0, 0.40) m.

Point charges q1 = q2 = 5.0 × 10^(-6) C are fixed on the x-axis at x = -3.9 m and x = 3.9 m. What charge q (in C) must be placed at the origin so that the electric field vanishes at x = 0, y = 3.9 m?
