Three charges, Q1, Q2, and Q3 are located along a straight line. The position of Q2 is 0.323 m to the right of Q1. Q3 is located 0.158 m to the right of Q2. The force on Q2 due to its interaction with Q3 is directed to the (Give ALL correct answers, i.e., B, AC, BCD...)

A) left if the two charges are positive.

B) right if the two charges have opposite signs.

C) right if the two charges are negative.

D) left if the two charges are negative.

E) left if the two charges have opposite signs.

For the above problem, use Q1= 1.39x10-6 C, Q2=-3.03 x10-6 C, and Q3= 3.03 x10-6 C. Calculate the total force on Q2. Use a plus sign for a force directed to the right.
