$A$ sphere of radius $R$ has a volume charge density $\rho = k r$, where $r$ is the distance from the center of the sphere and $k$ is a constant. The magnitude of the electric field at the surface of the sphere is given by ($\varepsilon_{0} =$ permittivity of free space):

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.
