    Greetings everybody,
    I've encountered a question about electrostatic forces on vertices of an equilateral triangle and I believe that I solved it correctly but my Physics teacher has marked it as incorrect. Am I correct? Amy clue why my Physics teacher marked it wrong? This is the question and the Physics teacher's marking of my answer. I attached it as well in case the link's dead.
