Solution: Click For PDF Version As charge
Similarly, as charge
From the diagram we note that the electric field along the X-axis due to the upper half charges and the lower half charges at the centre of the circle will cancel each other. Therefore, the net electric field at the centre of the circle will be along the Y-axis. From the diagram we note that the net electric field at the centre of the circle will be along the -Y-axis. Its magnitude will be |
