Problem

At two points on the same radial line from a point charge, the electric field magnitudes are in the ratio 16 : 9. The farther point is 5.0 cm beyond the nearer point. Calculate the distance of the nearer point from the charge. (a) 0.20 m0.20\,\text{m} (b) 0.06 m0.06\,\text{m} (c) 0.15 m0.15\,\text{m} (d) 0.30 m0.30\,\text{m}
