Question: Two positive point charges, QA = 2 . 7 5 times 1 0 6 C and QB , whose magnitude is unknown, are

Two positive point charges, QA=2.75\times 106C and QB, whose magnitude is unknown, are situated on an x-axis as shown in the figure. Note that the positive direction is to the right. A small positive test charge (black dot) is placed between the two charges, so that rA=0.750m and rB=0.250m.What is charge QB so that the total electric field at the position of the positive test charge will be zero?
K + Q A r A VB * + QB  +x

K + Q A r A VB * + QB +x
