If repulsive, both charges are +
kq(11-q)/.027^2=224
solve for q
You will get two solutions in that quadratic, the one with different a negative sign for q will be the attractive solution.
The sum of two point charges is +11μC. When they are 2.7cm apart, each experiences a force of 224 N. Find the charges given that the force is:
a) repulsive
b)attraction
