Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

Question:

Two charges $q_1=4 \times 10^{-7} C$ and $q_2=-6 \times 10^{-7} C$ are located 3 m apart. At what point the line joining the two charges is the electric potential zero? (Consider potential zero at infinity.)

Options:

1.5 meter from charge $q_1$

1.5 meter from charge $q_2$

1.2 meter from charge $q_1$

1.2 meter from charge $q_2$

Correct Answer:

1.2 meter from charge $q_1$

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 1.2 meter from charge $q_1$
