Electric Potential
 

Electric Potential problem 28


Two point charges P and Q are placed apart as shown in the figure below.




  • The charge of P is and the charge of Q is . Determine the distance from P of the point on the line joining the two charges where the electric potential is zero.


  • State and explain, without calculation, whether the electric field strength is zero at the same point at which the electric potential is zero.
