Two fixed charges, q1 = +1.07 µC and q2 = -3.28 µC, are 61.8 cm apart. Where may a third charge be located so that no net force acts on it?

The figure below shows two charges, Q1 and Q2, as well as several positions labeled A through E. Both charges are positive, and the magnitude of charge 1 is several times smaller than that of charge 2. At which one of the positions could you expect the net force on a third negative charge to be zero? location at point A location at point B location at point C location at point D location at point E
