At each of the four corners of a square of side a , a charge + q is placed freely . What charge should be placed at the centre of the square so that the whole system is in equilibrium ..?
Dear Student,
The given system consist 4 point charges +q placed at 4 corners A, B, C and D of a square of side a and a charge Q at the centre of the square. Any system of charges is in equilibrium if its total electric potential energy is equal to zero.
