1.3. As a next step, Liz traps a proton at this location exactly 3µm directly above the lithium ion, still holding the lithium ion fixed in its original location. Update

your drawing to include the proton. Now, consider whether or not there are any electrostatic forces in space around the lithium ion. Explain whether there are any electrostatic field(s) in space around the lithium ion. Justify your reasoning both with a diagram and math that relates to your diagram. Explain what is the source in this setup and what is the object of interest. Be sure to report your forces or field answer as a vector.
