    Stuck
In summary, being "stuck on a different problem" means encountering a new or unfamiliar issue that prevents progress on a task or project. To overcome this, one can take a break, seek help, break the problem down, or try a different approach. Common reasons for being stuck include a lack of understanding, facing a complex problem, limited resources, or mental blocks. Being stuck can be beneficial for developing problem-solving skills and collaborating with others. It is important to ask for help when all possible solutions have been exhausted or if the problem is time-sensitive or has significant consequences.

The charge is at the origin, coordinates 0,0. (Hint: Problem #14 uses the results of prob #12.)

Oops.

Didn't take notice of the word "origin". Anyway, you don't need to the answers from #12 because F= k*q1*q2/r^2 and you find force of the charges on the origin charge and take the magnitude of it.
