10. Two isolated charges, +q and −2q, are 2 centimeters apart. If F is the magnitude of the force acting on charge -2 Q , what are the magnitude and direction of the force acting on charge +q ?
Magnitude Direction
(A) (1/2) F Toward charge - 2q
(B) 2 F Away from charge -2 q
(C) F Toward charge - 2q
(D) F Away from charge - 2q
