    Point charges \[+4q,\,-q\] and \[+4q\] are kept on the \[x-\]axis at points \[x=0,\,x=a\] and \[x=2a\] respectively, then [CBSE PMT 1992]

    A)                    Only \[q\] is in stable equilibrium

    B)                    None of the charges are in equilibrium

    C)                    All the charges are in unstable equilibrium

    D)                    All the charges are in stable equilibrium

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                 Force on each charge is zero. But if any of the charge is displaced, the net force starts acting on all of them.
