Problem: A square with a 5 cm side has a charge q1 = -10 micro C at its upper-right corner and a charge q2 = 10 micro C at its upper-left corner. There is no charge at the lower-left corner where a point A is placed, and there is no charge at the lower-right corner where a point B is placed. Draw the square showing the charges and points A and B. Draw E1 and E2 created by q1 and q2 at a point A. Calculate their magnitude, direction, and their components
