Solution

The correct option is D $> \frac{F}{q_{0}}$
Electric field of a charged body due to charge: $q_{0} = E_{0} = \frac{F}{q_{0}}$
But the electric field of the charged body at a not in between two charges means the sum of field due to all point charges,i.e., $E = \frac{F}{q_{0}} + \sum_{i} \frac{F}{q_{i}}$
So, $E > \frac{F}{q_{0}}$

If a charged body experiences a force of repulsion of magnitude F from a charge of q0, the electric field E of the charged body at a point lying not in between the 2 charges but on the same line joining two charges, is :

The correct option is D >Fq0Electric field of a charged body due to charge: q0=E0=Fq0But the electric field of the charged body at a not in between two charges means the sum of field due to all point charges,i.e., E=Fq0+∑iFqiSo, E>Fq0
