Two charges, +9 µC and +16 µC, are fixed 1 m apart, with the second one to the right. Find the magnitude and direction of the net force (in N) on a −7 nC charge when placed at the following locations.
(a) halfway between the two
(b) half a meter to the left of the +9 µC charge
(c) half a meter above the +16 µC charge in a direction perpendicular to the line joining the two fixed charges (Assume this line is the x-axis with the +x-direction toward the right. Indicate the direction of the force in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)
