Neco 2020 Physics Objective / Multiple Choice Hard Difficulty
Question 28 NECO • 2020 • PHYSICS • objective

On the x‑axis, a point charge \(+8\;\mu\text{C}\) is placed at the origin and a charge \(-2\;\mu\text{C}\) at \(x = 0.12\;\text{m}\). (a) Determine the position on the axis where the net electric field is zero. (b) Calculate the electric potential at that point (take the potential at infinity as zero). Use \(k = 9\times10^{9}\;\text{N m}^{2}\text{C}^{-2}\).

Answer Options

A. x = 0.08 m, V = 5.0×10^{4} V
B. x = 0.48 m, V = 7.5×10^{4} V
C. x = 0.16 m, V = 2.0×10^{5} V
Correct Answer D. x = 0.24 m, V = 1.5×10^{5} V
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
x = 0.24 m, V = 1.5×10^{5} V
