If the net electric field at point \(\mathrm{P}\) along \(\mathrm{Y}\) axis is zero, then the ratio of \(\left|\frac{q_2}{q_3}\right|\) is \(\frac{8}{5 \sqrt{x}}\), where \(\mathrm{x}=\) _______.

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(5\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{\mathrm{Kq}_2}{20} \cos \beta=\frac{\mathrm{Kq}_3}{25} \cos \theta\)
\(\frac{\mathrm{Kq}_2}{20} \frac{4}{\sqrt{20}}=\frac{\mathrm{Kq}_3}{25} \frac{4}{\sqrt{25}}\)
\(\frac{\mathrm{q}_2}{\mathrm{q}_3}=\frac{20}{25} \sqrt{\frac{20}{25}}=\frac{8}{5 \sqrt{\mathrm{x}}}\)
\(\Rightarrow \sqrt{\mathrm{x}}=\frac{8 \times 25 \sqrt{25}}{5 \times 20 \sqrt{20}}\)
\(\mathrm{x}=5\)
