There are charges +q at each of the points `x = x_(0), x = 3x_(0), x = 3x_(0)`……..up to infinity on the x-axis and charges -q at each of the points `x = 2x_(0), x = 4x_(0), x = 6x_(0)`, ……up to infinity. Here `x_(0)` is a positive constant. What is the potential at the orgin due to the above system of charges?
