Two point charges $\displaystyle Q$ each are placed at a distance d apart. A third point charge $\displaystyle q$ is placed at a distance $\displaystyle x$ from mid-point on the perpendicular bisector. The value of $\displaystyle x$ at which charge $\displaystyle q$ will experience the maximum Coulomb's force is:
Official answer
(4)
$\displaystyle x=\frac{d}{2 \sqrt{2}}$
