When jane drives to work, she always places her purse on the passenger’s seat. by the time she gets to work, her purse has fallen on the floor in front of the passenger seat. one day, she asks you to explain why this happens in terms of physics. what do you say?

Two 1.20-m nonconducting wires meet at a right angle. one segment carries + 2.50 µc of charge distributed uniformly along its length, and the other carries - 2.50 µc distributed uniformly along it, as shown in fig. 21.50. ( a. find the magnitude and direction of the electric field these wires produce at point p, which is 60.0 cm from each wire. ( b. if an electron is released at p, what are the magnitude and direction of the net force that these wires exert on it?
