179. Four charged particles are placed at the corners of a square with side $20\,\text{cm}$ as shown in the figure below. If the net electric force on $q_2$ in SI units is $\vec{F} = -9\hat{i}$, how many microcoulombs is $q_2$?
$$\left(k = 9\times10^9\,\frac{\text{N}\cdot\text{m}^2}{\text{C}^2}\right)$$
