Three charges $-q_1$,$+q_2$,and $-q_3$ are placed as shown in the figure. The $x$-component of the force on $-q_1$ is proportional to

  • A
    $\frac{q_2}{b^2} - \frac{q_3}{a^2} \sin \theta$
  • B
    $\frac{q_2}{b^2} - \frac{q_3}{a^2} \cos \theta$
  • C
    $\frac{q_2}{b^2} + \frac{q_3}{a^2} \sin \theta$
  • D
    $\frac{q_2}{b^2} + \frac{q_3}{a^2} \cos \theta$
