    Thank you very much.

    Charge on a point in three different locations with a thin semicircular rod

    So all of the points; A,B, and C would have the same vector pointing down?

    Charge on a point in three different locations with a thin semicircular rod

    or is the resultant straight down?

    Charge on a point in three different locations with a thin semicircular rod

    Down and to the right. Would it be the same for both A and B. And C would be down and to the right?

    Charge on a point in three different locations with a thin semicircular rod

    I can't really visualize it but my guess is that the horizontal component of +Q would be to the left and the -Q would have a horizontal component equal and opposite so to the right. The vertical component of +Q on the charges would be down, same with the -Q charge.
