$A$ ring of radius $R$ has charge $-Q$ distributed uniformly over it. The charge that should be placed at the center of the ring such that the electric field becomes zero at a point on the axis of the ring at a distance $R$ from the center of the ring will be:

  • A
    $+Q$
  • B
    $\frac{+Q}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{+Q}{2^{2/3}}$
  • D
