Two charges `-2Q` abd `Q` are located at the points with coordinates `(-3a, 0)` and `(+3a, 0)` respectively in the x-y plane. (i) Show that all points in the x-y plane where the electric potential due to the charges is zero, on a circle. Find its radius and the location of its centre (ii) Give the expression V(x) at a general point on the x-axis and sketch the function V(x) on the whole x-axis. (iii) If a particle of charge +q starts from rest at the centre of the circle, shown by a short quantitative argument that the particle eventually crosses the circule. Find its speed when it does so.
