The Attempt at a Solution
I am confused about this problem. Shouldn't the electric field strength be 0 when x = 0? The charges are opposite and adding two opposite vectors with equal magnitude should be 0 right? So how come the answer says that the electric field strength is the greatest at x = 0 then? Thank you.
