Practice objective / multiple choice question 40 from the 2020 Neco Physics examination.

Neco 2020 Physics Objective / Multiple Choice Medium Difficulty
Question 40 NECO • 2020 • PHYSICS • objective

Two point charges are placed in the xy‑plane. Charge \(q_{1}=+2\,\mu\text{C}\) is at the origin \((0,0)\) and charge \(q_{2}=-3\,\mu\text{C}\) is at \((0,0.04\,\text{m})\). Determine the magnitude (in \(\text{N/C}\)) and direction (angle measured counter‑clockwise from the positive x‑axis) of the net electric field at point \(P\) located at \((0.06\,\text{m},0)\). Then calculate the work required to bring a test charge \(q_{t}=+1\,\mu\text{C}\) from infinity to point \(P\).
