Two identical charges $+Q $ are kept fixed some distance apart. A small particle $P $ with charge $q$ is placed midway between them. If $P$ is given a small displacement $\Delta$ , it will undergo simple harmonic motion if
$q$ is positive and $\Delta$ is along the line joining the charges.
$q$ is positive and $\Delta$ is perpendicular to the line joining the charges.
$q$ is negative and $\Delta$ is perpendicular to the line joining the charges.
$A$ and $C$ both
Solution
$\mathrm{q}$ is $+ ve$ then there will be net repulsive force which will send the charge particle back to its original position so it will be an $S.H.M.$
$\mathrm{q}$ is $-ve$ then there will be net attractice force which will send the charge particle back to its original position so it will be an $S.H.M.$
