Two charges q1 = 1.2 X 10^-8 C and q2 = -3.1q1 are placed 50 cm apart. Find the point along the straight line passing through the two charges at which the electric field is zero, as measured from q1.

Two-point charges are placed on the x-axis. The first charge, q1 = 8.00 nC, is placed at a distance of 16.0 m from the origin along the positive x-axis; the second charge, q2 = 6.00 nC, is placed at a distance of 9.00 m from the origin along the negative x-axis. Calculate the electric field at point A, located at coordinates (0 m, 12.0 m).
Give the x and y components of the electric field as an ordered pair.
