two Identical point charges are fixed to diagonallyoppositecorners of a square. where does a third point chargeexperience thegreater force?
a)at one of the empty cornors
b)at the center of the square
c)it depends on the sign of the third charge
d)the force in the center is equal to the force at oneofthe empty cornors

I think it is c because like charges repel each other.
