Two charge q and 
are placed fixed on x-axis separated by a distance 'd'. Where should a third charge 2q be placed such that it will not experience any force?
A
to the left of q
B
to the right of q
C
to the left of q
D
to the right of q
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
If on 2q, force due to q is to the left and force due to 
is to the right
(-ve sign is unacceptable)
to the left of q
