Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The electrical potential at the point midway between the two charges is given by:V = k * (q1 + q2) / rwhere:k is the Coulomb constant (8.99 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10 10⁹NF1F1F1S1F1F1F10m²/C²)q1 and q2 are the charges (+3.4 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10C and +6.6 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10C)r is the distance between the charges (0.20 m)Plugging in the values, we get:V = (8.99 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10 10⁹NF1F1F1S1F1F1F10m²/C²) * (3.4 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10C + 6.6 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10C) / 0.20 m= 0.90 F1F1F1S1F1F1F10 10⁶ VTherefore, the correct answer is C.
