(choose chapter or problem)

A positive point charge is located to the left of a negative point charge. When both charges have the same magnitude, there is no place on the line passing through both charges where the net electric field due to the two charges is zero. Suppose, however, that the negative charge has a greater magnitude than the positive charge. On which part of the line, if any, is a place of zero net electric field now located? (a) To the left of the positive charge (b) Between the two charges (c) To the right of the negative charge (d) There is no zero place.
