A few electric field lines for a system of two charges $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ fixed at two  different points on the $x$ -axis are shown in the figure. These lines suggest that:-

816-834

  • A

    $|Q_1| = |Q_2|$

  • B

    $|Q_1| < |Q_2|$

  • C

    at a finite distance to the left of $Q_1$ the electric field is zero

  • D

    at a finite distance to the right of $Q_2$ the electric field is zero
