1. Electric Charges and Fields
easy

Two point charges of $20\,\mu \,C$ and $80\,\mu \,C$ are $10\,cm$ apart. Where will the electric field strength be zero on the line joining the charges from $20\,\mu \,C$ charge......$m$

A

$0.1$

B

$0.04$

C

$0.033$

D

$0.33$

Solution

(c) Let neutral point be obtained at a distance $x$ from $20\,\mu \,C$ charge. Hence at neutral point$\frac{{20}}{{{{(x)}^2}}} = \frac{{80}}{{{{(10 – x)}^2}}}$ $==>$ $x =  + \,0.033\,m$
