Two charges, each equal to q, are kept at x = –a and x = a on the x–axis. A particle of mass m and charge \(\mathrm{q}_{0}=\frac{\mathrm{q}}{2}\) is placed at the origin. If charge q0 is given a small displacement y (y << a) along the y –axis, the net force acting on the particle is proportional to
  1. y
  2. –y
  3. \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{y}}\)
  4. \(-\frac{1}{y}\)

Answer

(A) y
