Two charges of equal magnitude but opposite sign are arranged as shown in the figure. Select the statement that correctly describes the electric field and electric potential at the midpoint between the charges. The electric field is zero and the electric potential is non-zero. The electric field is non-zero and the electric potential is zero. The electric field and electric potential are both non-zero. The electric field and electric potential are both zero.
