Question

Consider two point charges of equal magnitude and opposite sign separated by certain distance. The neutral point due to them: (A) does not exist (B) will be in midway between them (C) lies on the perpendicular bisector of line joining the two (D) will be outside on the line joining them

These two charges form an electric dipole, mid- point of which is called neutral point.

Q. Consider two point charges of equal magnitude and opposite sign separated by certain distance. The neutral point due to them:

does not exist

will be in midway between them

lies on the perpendicular bisector of line joining the two

will be outside on the line joining them

will be closer to the negative charge

These two charges form an electric dipole, mid- point of which is called neutral point.
