   * We can use superposition to add electric field contributions from the point charges (vector superposition): $\vec{E}_{tot}=\vec{E}_{1}+\vec{E}_{2}+\vec{E}_3$.   * We can use superposition to add electric field contributions from the point charges (vector superposition): $\vec{E}_{tot}=\vec{E}_{1}+\vec{E}_{2}+\vec{E}_3$.
   * We can use superposition to add electric potential contributions from the point charges (scalar superposition): $V_{tot}=V_1+V_2+V_3$.   * We can use superposition to add electric potential contributions from the point charges (scalar superposition): $V_{tot}=V_1+V_2+V_3$.

 +  * Charges are not moving: Simplifies the separation vectors of each charge as these would be changing if the charges were moving through space.
