Problem

Three point charges are kept in the first quadrant: +8 µC at (0 cm, 0 cm), −2 µC at (0 cm, 6 cm), and +2 µC at (8 cm, 0 cm). Which one of the following coordinates lies (other than at infinity) on a point where the electric potential is approximately zero? a) (4 cm, 3 cm)(4\,\text{cm},\,3\,\text{cm}) b) (2 cm, 6 cm)(2\,\text{cm},\,6\,\text{cm}) c) (0 cm, 4.9 cm)(0\,\text{cm},\,4.9\,\text{cm}) d) (0 cm, 4.0 cm)(0\,\text{cm},\,4.0\,\text{cm})
