Question

Part A through part D, please

Charge is distibuted uniformly over each of two spherical volumes with radius R. One sphere of charge is centered at the origin and the other at x=2R  (Figure 1). Let left-hand sphere have positive charge Q and let the right-hand sphere have negative charge -Q . 

Part A Find the magnitude of the net electric field due to these two distributions of charge at the point x=0 on the x-axis. Express your answer in terms of the variables Q , R , and appropriate constants. 

 Part B Find the magnitude of the net electric field at the point  x=R/2 on the x-axis. Express your answer in terms of the variables Q , R , and appropriate constants. 

Part C Find the magnitude of the net electric field at the point x=R on the x-axis. Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R , and appropriate constants. 

Part D Find the magnitude of the net electric field at the point x=3R
on the x-axis. Express your answer in terms of the variables Q, R, and appropriate constants.
