A small charged particle of mass m and charge q is suspended by an insulated thread in front of a very large conducting charged sheet of uniform surface density of charge `sigma`. The angle made by the thread with the vertical in equilibrium is

A

Tension in the thread may reduce to zero if another charged sphere is placed vertically below it.

B

tension in the thread is greater than mg if another charged sphere is held in the horizontal line in which first sphere stays inequlibrium.

C

tension in the thread may increases to twice of its original value if another charged sphere is placed vertically below it

D

tension in the thread is always equal to mg.
