Question:

A charge of -3.00 µC is fixed at the center of a compass. Two additional charges are fixed on the circle of the compass, which has a radius of 0.100 m. The charges on the circle are -4.00 µC at the position due north and +5.00 µC at the position due east. What are the magnitude and direction of the net electrostatic force acting on the charge at the center? Specify the direction relative to due east.
