The distance between the two charges $25\,\mu C$ and $36\,\mu C$ is $11\,cm$ At what point on the line joining the two, the intensity will be zero

A

At a distance of $5\,cm$ from $25\,\mu C$

B

At a distance of $5\,cm$ from $36\,\mu C$

C

At a distance of $10\,cm$ from $25\,\mu C$

D

At a distance of $11\,cm$ from $36\,\mu C$

Solution

(a) Suppose electric field is zero at point $N$ in the figure then
At $N$ |$E_1$| = |$E_2$|
which gives ${x_1} = \frac{x}{{\sqrt {\frac{{{Q_2}}}{{{Q_1}}}} + 1}} = \frac{{11}}{{\sqrt {\frac{{36}}{{25}}} + 1}} = 5\,cm$
