1. Electric Charges and Fields
medium
Four charges are arranged at the corners of a square $ABCD$, as shown in the adjoining figure. The force on the charge kept at the centre $O$ is

A
Zero
B
Along the diagonal $AC$
C
Along the diagonal $BD$
D
Perpendicular to side $AB$
Solution
(c) We put a unit positive charge at $O$. Resultant force due to the charge placed at $A$ and $C$ is zero and resultant charge due to $B$ and $D$ is towards $D$ along the diagonal $BD$.
