Three charged particles $A, B$ and $C$ with charges $-4q, 2q$ and $-2q$ are present on the circumference of a circle of radius $d$. The charged particles $A, C$ and the centre $O$ of the circle form an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure. The electric field at $O$ along the $x$-direction is

  • A
    $\frac{2 \sqrt{3} q}{\pi \varepsilon_{0} d^{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3} q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0} d^{2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{3 \sqrt{3} q}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0} d^{2}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{3} q}{\pi \varepsilon_{0} d^{2}}$
