Compute each part of given question:

Question: The dipole moment of the water molecule (H₂O) is 6.17 x 10^-30 C.m. Consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. A chlorine ion (Cl-), of charge-1.60 x 10^-19 C, is located at x=3.00 x 10^-9 m. Assume that x is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used.

Part I: Find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion.

Part II: What is the direction of the electric force?

Part III: Is this force attractive or repulsive?

Please explain your answer. I know substitution is involved so be sure to give a detailed explanation on that as well.
