A charge q1 = 1.62
a)given the distance of A from q1 is 3d/4. so the distance of A from q2 is d- 3d/4 = d/4
therefore the potentiaal at A is V = 1/40 [ 1.62 x 10-6 / (3d/4) - 5.97x10-6/ (d/4)]
calculating we get V = 173.27 x 103 volt b) let the distance of q be X from A, then the distance of A from B will be d-X
THE ELECTRIC POTENTIAL WILL BE ZERO WHEN
the potential at A due to q = potential at A due to q
1/40 q1 / X = 1/40 q2 / d-X
Evaluating the expression for X we get X = 1.13 q1 /(q1+q2) where d =1.13m
