Equal charges $q$ are placed at the vertices $A$ and $B$ of an equilateral triangle $ABC$ of side $a$. The magnitude of the electric field at point $C$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{q}{4\pi \varepsilon_0 a^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{2} q}{4\pi \varepsilon_0 a^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\sqrt{3} q}{4\pi \varepsilon_0 a^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{q}{2\pi \varepsilon_0 a^2}$
