A particle with charge -40.0 nC is on the x axis at the point with coordinate x = 0. A second particle, with charge -20.0 nC, is on the x axis at x = 0.500 m. Is there a point at a finite distance where the electric potential is zero?

1.Yes; it is to the left of x = 0.
2.Yes; it is between x = 0 and x = 0.500 m.
3.Yes; it is to the right of x = 0.500 m.
4.No.
