A point charge `Q` is placed at origin. Let `vecE_(A), vec E_(B), and vecE_(C)` be the electirc field at three points A (1,2,3), B (1,1,1), and C(2,2,2) due to charge `Q`. Then

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`bar(E )_(A)` is along `bar(OA) and bar(E )_(B)` is along `bar(OB)`.
`bar(OA) = i + 2j + 3k and bar(OB) =I + j - k` since `bar(OA).bar(OB) = 0`,
`bar(E )_(A) bot bar(E )_(B)` further `|bar(E )| prop (1)/(r^(2))`
`therefore |bar(OC)| =2 |bar(OB)| therefore |bar(E )_(B)|=4 |bar(E )_(C)|`
