$A$ charge $Q$ is divided into two parts $Q_1$ and $Q_2$. These charges are placed at a distance $R$. What will be the values of $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ for the maximum repulsive force between them?

  • A
    $Q_1 = Q - \frac{Q}{R}, Q_2 = \frac{Q}{R}$
  • B
    $Q_1 = \frac{2Q}{3}, Q_2 = \frac{Q}{3}$
  • C
    $Q_1 = \frac{3Q}{4}, Q_2 = \frac{Q}{4}$
  • D
    $Q_1 = Q_2 = \frac{Q}{2}$
