Two small objects, each with charge + 5.0 X 10-9 C, are separated by a distance of 50 cm. What is the magnitude and the direction of the electric force that they exert on an identical third object that is 50 cm from each of them?

(a) 1.6 X 10-6 N, perpendicular to the line connecting the charges

(b) 1.6 X 10-6 N, parallel to the line connecting the charges

(c) 1.8 X 10-6 N, perpendicular to the line connecting the charges

(d) 1.8 X 10-6 N, parallel to the line connecting the charges
