An electric dipole is placed on the $x$-axis in proximity to a line charge with a linear charge density of $3.0 \times 10^{-6} \, C/m$. The line charge is placed on the $z$-axis. The positive and negative charges of the dipole are at distances of $10 \, mm$ and $12 \, mm$ from the origin,respectively. If a total force of $4 \, N$ is exerted on the dipole,find the magnitude of the positive or negative charge of the dipole.

  • A
    $815.1 \, nC$
  • B
    $8.8 \, \mu C$
  • C
    $0.485 \, mC$
  • D
    $4.44 \, \mu C$
