11. A point charge +q and a charge (- q) are placed at x = -a and x = + a respectively. Which of the following represents a part of E -- x graph ?

12. If two electric charges q and - 2q are placed at a distance 6a apart, then the locus of point in the plane of charge, where the field potential is zero, is : (a) x2 + 2X/2 - 4ax - 12a2 = 0 (b) 2x2 + y2 + 4ax - 12a2 = 0 (c) x2 + y2 + 4ax-12a2 = 0 (d) x2 + y2 + 8ax + 12a2 = 0
