Three point charges are arranged along the x axis

Subject:PhysicsPrice: Bought3

Three point charges are arranged along the x axis. Charge q = -4.60 nC is located at x= 0.240 m and charge q = 2.40 nC is at x= -0.300 m . A positive point charge q is located at the origin.

What must the value of q be for the net force on this point charge to have magnitude 3.60 μN ?

What is the direction of the net force on q ?

Where along the x axis can q be placed and the net force on it be zero, other than the trivial answers of x=+∞ and x=−∞?
