1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
When a problem says: "a test charge is placed at the origin" are we to assume its a positive charge?? (it doesn't say in this prob)
If the question says that the test charge is Q = 0.6nC --then i should assume pos right?

2. Relevant equations



3. The attempt at a solution
