The electrostatic force of interaction between a uniformly charged rod having total charge $Q$ and length $L$ and a point charge $q$ as shown in the figure is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{qQ}{d(d+L)}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{4qQ}{(2d+L)^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{Qq}{d^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{qQ}{(d+L)^2}$
