    As shown in the figure, charges \[+q\] and \[-q\] are placed at the vertices B and C of an isosceles triangle. The potential at the vertex A is

    A)  \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{2a}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}}\]

    B)  zero

    C)  \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{q}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}}\]

    D)  \[\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{\left( -q \right)}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Potential at A \[=+\frac{q}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}}-\frac{q}{\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}}}\] = zero
