A total charge $Q$ is broken in two parts ${Q_1}$ and ${Q_2}$ and they are placed at a distance $R$ from each other. The maximum force of repulsion between them will occur, when

  • A

    ${Q_2} = \frac{Q}{R},\;{Q_1} = Q - \frac{Q}{R}$

  • B

    ${Q_2} = \frac{Q}{4},\;{Q_1} = Q - \frac{{2Q}}{3}$

  • C

    ${Q_2} = \frac{Q}{4},\;{Q_1} = \frac{{3Q}}{4}$

  • D

    ${Q_1} = \frac{Q}{2},\;{Q_2} = \frac{Q}{2}$
