The correct option is: (A) A
Explanation:
Where E is zero must be closer to the smaller charge to make up for the weaker field. The vectors point in opposite directions outside the two opposite charges. These two criteria eliminate 3 of the choices. For the magnitudes of the electric fields to be zero the ratios Q/r2 must be equal giving (in units along the x axis) Q/r2 = 4Q/(r + 4 units)2 giving r = 4 units
