1.

The figure shows two point charges 2Q(gt0) and -Q. The charges divide the line joining them in three parts I, II, and III.

Answer»

REGION III has a local maxima of electric field.
Region I has a local minima of electric field.
Equilibrium position for a test cfharge lies in region II.
The equilibrium (if there is any) is stable for a negative test CHARGE.

SOLUTION :a.,d.
Electric field is ZERO only at a point in region III. Equilibrium at this point will be stable for a negatie charge.
