Consider two point charges located on the x axis: onecharge, q1 = -13.0 nC , is located at x1 = -1.715 mm ; the secondcharge, q2 = 33.5 nCnC , is at the origin (x = 0).

What is (Fnet3)x the x-component of the net forceexerted by these two charges on a third charge q3 = 50.5 nC placedbetween q1 and q2 at x3 = -1.075 mm ?

Your answer may be positive or negative, depending on thedirection of the force.
