Coulomb's law and field

Q1- Three charges q1= +10*10-6 C, q2 = -5*10-6 C and q3 = +20*10-6 C are placed in a straight line as bellow.

•        2cm                •                3cm                  •                                                             

q1                                    q2                                                      q3

a) Find the magnitude and direction of the force on q2      

b) Find the magnitude and direction of the field at position of q2 due to q1 and q2.

Q2- Two dipoles with charge 1*10-12 C each and length 3 cm are placed on a straight line in such a way that their negative charges facing each other. The distance between the negative charges is 6 cm. Find the net force(magnitude and direction) exerted by one dipole on the other.
