To find the point where the electric intensity is zero between two point charges of +3 µC each that are 100 cm apart, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the setup We have two point charges, both of +3 µC, separated by a distance of 100 cm. The electric field due to a point charge is directed away from the charge if it is positive. ### Step 2: Identify the region where the electric field can be zero Since both charges are positive, the electric field will be repulsive. Therefore, the electric field can only be zero at a point between the two charges, not outside them. ...
