Answer:
The third charge placed is 0.80 m.
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance = 0.57 m
First charge = q
Third charge = 2q
We need to calculate the electrostatic force on charge q₁ due to q₂
Using formula of electrostatic force

When placed another charge q₃ at certain distance from origin, then the net force on charge q₁ due to both charges is

The net electrostatic force on the charge at the origin doubles.






Put the value into the formula



Hence, The third charge placed is 0.80 m from origin in x-axis.
