Two point charges $Q_0$ and – 3Q are placed at some distance apart. If the electric field at the location of $Q$ is $\Gamma$ then at the locality of -30 , it is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
The field produced by charge – 3Q at A, this is E as mentioned in the Example.
$E = \frac{3Q}{2x^2}$ (along AB directed towards negative charge)
Now field at location of – 3Q i.e. field at B due to charge Q will be $E' = \frac{Q}{x^{2}} = \frac{E}{3}$ (along AB directed away from positive charge)
