A point charge q 1 is located on the x-axis at x = + 4.0m. A point charge of q 2

Question

A point charge q1 is located on the x-axis at x = + 4.0m. A point charge of q2 is located on the x-axisat x = - 8.0 m. The algebraic sum of the two point charges is+ 8.0 x 10-6 C.

1. If the electric field atthe origin is zero due to these two point charges, what are thevalues of q1 and q2?
2. If the electric potentialat the origin (referenced to V = 0 @ infinity) is zero, what arethe values of q1 and q2?

Note: a. and b. are separate problems with different results for thevalues of the two point charges.
