Assertion : Consider two identical charges placed distance $2d$ apart, along $x-$ axis. The equilibrium of a positive test charge placed at the point $O$ midway between them is stable for displacements along the $x-$ axis.
Reason: Force on test charge is zero

Two identical positive charges $Q$ each are fixed at a distance of ' $2 a$ ' apart from each other. Another point charge qo with mass ' $m$ ' is placed at midpoint between two fixed charges. For a small displacement along the line joining the fixed charges, the charge $q_{0}$ executes $SHM$. The time period of oscillation of charge $q_{0}$ will be.
