Question

Two equal positive charges are located at points A and B as shown in the diagram. The distance from each charge to the point P is a = 2.0 m. Suppose that the charges are rearranged along a straight line, as shown in this diagram. Which one of the following statements is true for this new arrangement? Suppose that the charges are rearranged along a straight line, as shown in this diagram. Which one of the following statements is true for this new arrangement? The electric field will be zero, but the electric potential remains unchanged. The electric field will remain unchanged, but the electric potential will be zero. Both the electric field and the electric potential are zero at P. The electric field will remain unchanged, but the electric potential will decrease. Both the electric field and the electric potential will be changed and will be non-zero.

Explanation / Answer

option a electric field will be zero but electric potential is same
