1) Two positive charges q1=q2=2.0uc are located at x=0, y=0.30m, respectively. what are the magnitude and direction of the total electric force that q1 and q2 exert on a third charge Q=4.0 uc at x=0.40m, y=0?

2) suppose that charge q2 in question no 1 were (-2.0)uc in this case, the total electric force on q would be 1) in the positive x-direction; 2) in the negative x-direction; 3) in the positive y-direction; 4) in the negative y-direction; 5) zero; 6) none of these.
