Two small beads having positive charges q1 = 8 q and q2 = q are fixed at the opposite ends of a horizontal insulating rod of length d = 1.55 m. The bead with charge q1 is at the origin. As shown in the figure below, a third small charged bead is free to slide on the rod. At what position x is the third bead in equilibrium? (i) x = m
