Two point charges of $+2 \, \mu \text{C}$ and $+6 \, \mu \text{C}$ repel each other with a force of $12 \, \text{N}$. If a charge of $-4 \, \mu \text{C}$ is added to each,the force will be:

  • A
    $4 \, \text{N}$ (attractive)
  • B
    $60 \, \text{N}$ (attractive)
  • C
    $4 \, \text{N}$ (repulsive)
  • D
    $12 \, \text{N}$ (attractive)
