Three points A, B, and C are shown. These points are equidis- tant from the + charge. Rank the magnitudes of the total electric ield from both charges, E, and Ec at the three points tg A -2q Select One of the Following (a) Ea>E-E (b) EA E> E (c) EA

Explanation / Answer

Electric field at A will be highest as the electric fields due to both charges add up as they are aligned in same direction.

Point B is closer to -2q than point C , so magnitude of net electric field at B will be greater than at C.

So, the ranking is as follows :

EA > EB > EC <---------- option b
