Three positive charges of equal value q are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle . The resulting lines of force should be sketched as in

Solution:

Option 1 is wrong as electric field lines will emerge out of +ve charge and should submerge only at -ve charge.

Option 2 is wrong as electric field lines can not be circular loop.

Option 3 is correct.

Option 4 is wrong because it is representing equipotential surface not field lines
