Suppose you have 5 point charges q1 to q5 distributed along a semi-circle maintaining equal distance.
The charge q6 is on the center of the circle which is also the origin of given coordinate system. The
radius of the semi-circle is R = 44 cm and the magnitude of the charges are as follows :
q1 = q5 = 20 μC , q2 = q4 = 38 μC and q3 = q6 = −38 μC .
