Two point charges `(q_(1)` and `q_(2)`) are placed on x-axis, figure shows graph potential (V) on x-axis. With x-co-ordinate:

A

A. `q_(1)gt0`

B

B. `q_(1)=(x_(1))/(x_(2))q_(2)`

C

C. `|q_(1)|lt|q_(2)|`

D

D. `|q_(1)|gt|q_(2)|`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C
Potential near `q_(1)` is `+infty` so `q_(1)gt0` potential near `q_(2)` is `-infty` so `q_(2)lt0` potential is zero `x_(2)ltx_(1)` so `|q_(1)|gt|q_(2)|`
