Charges \(Q\) are placed at the ends of a diagonal of a square and charges \(q\) are placed at the other two corners. The condition for the net electric force on \(Q\) to be zero is

  1. A \(Q=-2 \sqrt{2} q, q\) being negative
  2. B \(Q=-\frac{q}{2}\), \(q\) being negative
  3. C \(Q=2 \sqrt{2} q, q\) being negative
  4. D \(Q=2 q, q\) being negative
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(Q=-2 \sqrt{2} q, q\) being negative

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Net force on \(D\) due to \(A\) and \(B=\frac{K \sqrt{2} Q q}{a^2}\) Force on \(D\) due to \(B=\frac{K Q^2}{2 a^2}\) For net electric field on \(D\) to be zero…
