JEE Main 2022 Physics question

Two point charges Q each are placed at a distance d apart. A third point charge q is placed at a distance x from mid-point on the perpendicular bisector. The value of x at which charge q will experience the maximum Coulombs force is :

(1)x = d
(2)x = d/2
(3)
(4)Correct

Answer: (4)

Solution

The force on q from the two charges Q has a component along the bisector from each: (the components perpendicular to the
