question

Two charged particles are fixed to an xx axis: Particle 1 of charge q1=2.1×10−8Cq_1=2.1 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{C} is at position $x=20 \mathrm{~cm}$ and particle 2 of charge q2=−4.00q1q_2=-4.00 q_1 is at position $x=70 \mathrm{~cm}$. At what coordinate on the axis (other than at infinity) is the net electric field produced by the two particles equal to zero?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Two charged particles are fixed to an x axis: Particle 1 of charge q₁=2.1×10^(−8)C is at position $x=20 \mathrm{~cm}$ and particle 2 of charge q₂=−4.00q₁ is at position $x=70 \mathrm{~cm}$. At what coordinate on the axis (other than at infinity) is the net electric field produced by the two particles equal to zero?
Original LaTeX notation
Two charged particles are fixed to an $x$ axis: Particle 1 of charge $q_1=2.1 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{C}$ is at position $x=20 \mathrm{~cm}$ and particle 2 of charge $q_2=-4.00 q_1$ is at position $x=70 \mathrm{~cm}$. At what coordinate on the axis (other than at infinity) is the net electric field produced by the two particles equal to zero?
