To find the points where the electric potential is zero on the line joining two point charges, we can follow these steps: ### Given: - Charge \( Q_1 = -5 \, \mu C = -5 \times 10^{-6} \, C \) - Charge \( Q_2 = +3 \, \mu C = +3 \times 10^{-6} \, C \) - Distance between the charges \( d = 64 \, cm = 0.64 \, m \) ### Step 1: Define the positions ...
