A charge `+q` is fixed at each of the points `x=x_0`, `x=3x_0`, `x=5x_0`,…………`x=oo` on the x axis, and a charge `-q` is fixed at each of the points `x=2x_0`, `x=4x_0`, `x=6x_0`, …………`x=oo`. Here `x_0` is a positive constant. Take the electric potential at a point due to a charge Q at a distance r from it to be `Q//(4piepsilon_0r)`.Then, the potential at the origin due to the above system of

A

0
