A very long uniform line of charge has charge per unit length 4.82 micro-Coulombs/m and lies along the x-axis. A second long uniform line of charge has charge per unit length -2.58 micro-Coulombs/m and is parallel to the x-axis at y1 = 0.398 m.

What is the magnitude of the net electric field at point y2 = 0.216 m on the y-axis?

What is the direction of the net electric field at point y2= 0.216 m on the y-axis?
