Answer:
answer 2
Explanation:
The electric field due to a ring of radius R at a point on its axis is E=k(z2+R2)3/2−Qz
Electric field at point P(z=R) is E1=k(R2+R2)3/2−QR=−k22R3QR=−k22R2Q
Electric field at P due to center charge q is E2=kR2q
As the net field at P is zero so
E1+E2=0
or −k22R2Q+kR2q=0
⇒q=22Q=4Q2
hope it helps
