Question

Two print charges $$ q_1 = +2.40 n C $$ and $$ q_2 = -6.50 nC $$ are 0.100 m apart. Point A is midway between them ; point B is 0.080 m form $$q_1 $$ and 0.060 m from $$ q_2 $$ as shown in fig. take the electric potential to be zero at infinity .
The potential at point A is

A
-120 V
B
-323 V
C
-705 V
D
-738 V
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Correct option is A. -738 V
Electric Potential:
At $$ A : V_A = k ( \dfrac {q_1}{r_1} + \dfrac {q_2}{r_2})= k( \dfrac { 2.40 \times 10^{-9} C }{ 0.05 m } + \dfrac { -6.50 \times 10^{-9} C} {0.05 m } ) = -738 V $$
