A -3.50 nC point charge is at the origin, and a second -6.00 nC point charge is on the x-axis at x = 0.800 m.

A. Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) at a point on the x-axis at x = 0.200 m.

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter a positive value if the field is in the positive x-direction and a negative value if the field is in the negative x-direction.

B. Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) at the point on the x-axis at x = 1.20 m.

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter a positive value if the field is in the positive x-direction and a negative value if the field is in the negative x-direction.

C. Find the electric field (magnitude and direction) at the point on the x-axis at x = -0.200 m.

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter a positive value if the field is in the positive x-direction and a negative value if the field is in the negative x-direction.

D. Find the net electric force that the two charges would exert on an electron placed at a point on the X-axis at x = 0.200 m.

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter a positive value if the force is in the positive x-direction and a negative value if the force is in the negative x-direction.

E. Find the net electric force that the two charges would exert on an electron placed at a point on the X-axis at x = 1.20 m.

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter a positive value if the force is in the positive x-direction and a negative value if the force is in the negative x-direction.

F. Find the net electric force that the two charges would exert on an electron placed at a point on the X-axis at x = -0.200 m.

Express your answer with the appropriate units. Enter a positive value if the force is in the positive x-direction and negative value if the force is in the negative x-direction.
