Each grid is a meter. If charge B is +17.2 μC, calculate the electric field at the origin in terms of x and y components. EB = (8.99E9)(17.2E-6)/(22 + 42) = 7731.4 N/C θtrig = 360 – tan-1(2/4) = 333.43o x comp = (7731.4 N/C)cos(333.43o) = 6915.174384 N/C ≈ 6920 N/C y comp = (7731.4 N/C)sin(333.43o) = -3457.587192 N/C ≈ 3460 N/C
