Two fixed charges 4 Q (positive ) and q...

Two fixed charges ` 4 Q` (positive ) and `q` (negative ) are located at `A` and `B` , ther distance `AB` being `3 m`.
.

A

The point P where the resultant fiedld due to both is zero is on AB outside AB.

B

the point P where the resultant field due to both is zero is on `AB` inside `AB`.

C

If a positive charge is placed at P and displaced slightly along `AB` it will execute oscillations .

D

If a negative cahrge si placed at `P` and displaced slidghtly alogn `AB` it will execute oscillations .
