Q89 / 90 · JEE Main 2019 (09 Jan Shift 2) · Physics

Two point charges q110 μC and q2-25 μC are placed on the x -axis at x=1 m and x=4 m respectively. The electric field in V/m at a point y=3 m on y-axis is,

Take 14πϵ0=9×109 N m2C-2

  • A
    -81 i^+81 j^×102
  • B
    81 i^-81 j^×102
  • C
    -63 i^+27 j^×102
  • Correct answer
    D
    63i^-27j^×102

Solution

Electric field due to 10 μC
Figure

E→1=14π∈010×10-6r13 r→1

=14π∈010×10-6103-i^+3j^

Similarly, electric field due to -25 μC

E→2=14π∈025×10-6534i^-3j^

Net electric field, 
E→=9×109×10-6-i^10+3j^10+45i^-35j^

=9×1037i^10-3j^10

=63i^-27j^×102 NC

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
