In the figure shown, the equilibrium of proton p is stable with respect to its displacement along
Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
Displace p along the x-axis: the nearer like charge repels it back toward O while the opposite charges assist the return - restoring, stable.
Along y or z the forces deflect it away from O - unstable.
Stable only along the x-axis. Option (A).
