NEED physics HELP NOWW PLEASE!?

Particles of charge Q1 = +62 µC, Q2 = +49 µC, and Q3 = -80 µC are placed in a line (Fig. 16-49). The center one is 0.35 m from each of the others.

the picture kinda looks like this

Q1------------Q2-------------Q3

.35m .35m

Calculate the net force on each charge due to the other two. (State magnitude)

Force on Q1_________N

Force on Q2_________N

Force on Q3_________N

PLease show atleast some work

    I presume this is for MP due at 12?

    Force = kq1q2/r^2

    Its a simple formula, all you have to do is plug in the numbers

    Force on Q1

    From Q2

    k(62)(49)/(.35)^2

    From Q3

    k(62)(-80)/(0.70)^2

    and you add them to get the net force.
