Three charges q, Q and + 4q are placed in a straight line of length 'd' at points at distances 0, and d respectively. In order to make the net force on q to be zero, value of Q should be

Answer: (C)

Solution

Place q at , Q at and at . The charge repels q toward with force . For the net force on q to vanish, Q must pull q toward , so Q must be negative (attractive), with
