As we learned

By conduction -

When two conducters brought in contact.

- wherein

i.e The charge will spread over both the conducters.

 

 F_{A}=force \; on \; C\; due\; to\; charge \; placed\; at\; A

=9\times 10^{9}\times \frac{10^{-6}\times2\times10^{-6}}{(10\times10^{-2})^{2} }=1.8N

FB = force on C due to charge placed at B

=9\times 10^{9}\times \frac{10^{-6}\times2\times10^{-6}}{(0.1)^{2} }=1.8N

Net force on C

F_{net}=\sqrt{(F_{A})^{2}+(F_{B})^{2}+2F_{A}F_{B}\cos 120^{\circ}}=1.8N

 


Option 1)

0.9N\; \;

Option 2)

\; 1.8N\; \;

Option 3)

\; 2.7N\;

Option 4)

\; 3.6N
