Two point charges \(A\) and \(B\) of magnitude \(+8 \times 10^{-6}\,C\) and \(-8 \times 10^{-6}\,C\) respectively are placed at a distance \(d\) apart. The electric field at the middle point \(O\) between the charges is \(6.4 \times 10^{4}\,NC ^{-1}\). The distance ' \(d\) ' between the point charges \(A\) and \(B\) is..............\(m\)

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(3.0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(E _{0}=2 \times \frac{ Kq }{( d / 2)^{2}}\)

\(\Rightarrow E _{0}=8 \frac{ Kq }{ d ^{2}}\)

\(\Rightarrow d ^{2}=\frac{8 \times 9 \times 10^{9} \times 8 \times 10^{-6}}{6.4 \times 10^{4}}\)

\(d =3\,m\)
