Two conducting spheres each of radius R ...

Two conducting spheres each of radius R carry charge q. They are placed at a distance r from each other, where `r gt 2 R`. The neutral point lies at a distance `r/2` from either sphere. If the electric field at the neutral point due to either sphere be E, then the total electric potential at that point will be -

A

`r E//2`

B

`r E`

C

`RE//2`
