In the figure two positive charges`q_2` and `q_3` fixed along the Y-axis, exert a net electric force in the `+` x direction on a charge `q_1` fixed along the X-axis. If a positive charge Q is added, at {x, 0), the force on `q_1`

A

shall increase along the positive X-axis

B

shall decrease along the positive X-axis

C

shall point along the negative X-axis

D

shall increase but the direction changes because of the intersection of Q with `q_2`and `q_3`
