| * Constant charge: Makes charge in electric field equation not dependent on time or space as no information is given in problem suggesting so. | * Constant charge: Makes charge in electric field equation not dependent on time or space as no information is given in problem suggesting so. | ||
| * Charge is not moving: This makes our separation vector fixed in time as a moving charge would have a changing separation vector with time. | * Charge is not moving: This makes our separation vector fixed in time as a moving charge would have a changing separation vector with time. | ||
