1.   These two solid spheres initially have the charge evenly distributed on their surfaces. 

a.  If a proton were to be placed at position A, what would be the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on it due to the two charged spheres?

 

b.  If a proton were to be placed at position B, what would be the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on it due to the two charged spheres?

 

c.  If a proton were to be placed at position C, what would be the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on it due to the two charged spheres?
