Net electric field at A due to charges at B and C is
EA=2EAcsin50o=2×9×109×3×10−6(0.20)2×√32
=√3×6.75×105
AM=√(20)2−(10)2=√400−100=10√3cm
Let the charge at M be q. Charge q should be positive so that there can be repulsion between the charges at A and M.
EAM=9×109×q(10√3/100)2=3q×1011
For A to be in equilibrium
EA=EAM⇒√3×6.75×105=3q×1011
or q=9√34×10−6=9√34μC
