6 In Fig. 22-27, two identical circu-
lar nonconducting rings are centered
on the same line with their planes
perpendicular to the line. Each ring
has charge that is uniformly distrib-
uted along its circumference. The
rings each produce electric fields at points along the line. For three
situations, the charges on rings A and B are, respectively, (1) qo and
9o, (2) -90 and -90, and (3) - and qo. Rank the situations
