Answer #1

Value of charge given is a bit confusing. If the value of charge is +10^(-6) C.then the answer will be as follows otherwise if one charge is +10C and other is -6C then please specify in comments i will solve accordingly.

In all the three case force as well as electric field will be zero as charges are placed at mid point on which force is to be calculated as electric field is always zero at mid point if both main charges have same sign as well as same magnitude. Here also both main charges are positive and their magnitude is also same.

Hence answer of all three parts is zero
