To solve the problem step by step, we will first find the point where the electric field intensity is zero and then calculate the electrostatic potential energy of the system of charges. ### Step 1: Understanding the Setup We have two point charges: - Charge 1: \(4Q\) - Charge 2: \(Q\) These charges are separated by a distance of 1 meter in air. We need to find the point on the line joining these charges where the electric field intensity is zero. ...
