Consider an arbitrary electrostatic field configuration. A small test charge is placed at a null point (i.e., where E = 0) of the configuration. Show that the equilibrium of the test charge is necessarily unstable.

(a) Consider an arbitrary electrostatic field configuration. A small test charge is placed at a null point (i.e., where E = 0) of the configuration. Show that the equilibrium of the test charge is necessarily unstable. (b) Verify this result for the simple configuration of two charges of the same magnitude and sign placed a certain distance apart.

(a) Consider an arbitary electrostatic field configuration. A small test charge is placed at a null point (i.e, where vec(E) = 0 ) of the configuration. Show that the equillibrium of the test charge is necessarlly unsutable. (b) Verify this result for the simple configuration of two charges of the same magnitude and sign placed a certain distance apart.
