A 8.95 μC point charge is glued down on a horizontal frictionless table on the right. If is tied to a -6.35 μC point charge by a light nonconducting wire with length 2.5 cm on the left. The charges are placed in a external, uniform electric field with magnitude 1.65 x 10^8 N/C that is directed parallel to the wire to the right toward the positive charge from the negative charge. Find the tension in the wire. What would the tension by if both charges were negative?

You lazy fool. Copying and pasting questions from MasteringPhysics, you should be ashamed of yourself. You will never go anywhere in life.
Don't yall just want to punch this person so hard that he flies out of the Earth's atmosphere?
A 8.95 μC point charge is glued down on. "GLUED DOWN" is the key.
