In the figure, two positive charges \(q_2\) and \(q_3\) fixed along the \(y\)-axis, exert a net electric force in the \(+x\text-\)direction on a charge \(q_1\) fixed along the \(x\)-axis. If a positive charge \(Q\) is added at \((x, 0),\) the force on \(q_1\):

        

1. shall increase along the positive \(x\)-axis.
2. shall decrease along the positive \(x\)-axis.
3. shall point along the negative \(x\)-axis.
4. shall increase but the direction changes because of the intersection of \(Q\) with \(q_2\) and \(q_3\).

2. \(E\) on the LHS of the above equation will have a contribution from all charges while \(q\) on the RHS will have a contribution from \(q_2~\text{and}~q_4\) only.
3. \(E\) on the LHS of the above equation will have a contribution from all charges while \(q\) on the RHS will have a contribution from \(q_1, q_3~\text{and}~q_5\) only.
4. Both \(E\) on the LHS and \(q\) on the RHS will have contributions from \(q_2\) and \(q_4\) only.
