Q and -q are two charges d distances apartFind locus of a point at which electric fields are parallel to the line joining the charges?

Seems to me it has to be the line that passes through the mid-point of the line joining the charges, and perpendicular to it. It would be a line with slope = -1 / (slope of line joining the charges) and passing through the point that's (d/2) distant from both charges.


How do you show that two points are parallel to two other points?

Points cannot be parallel to other points. A straight line joining two points is parallel to a straight line joining another pair of points if the gradient (slope) of the two lines is the same.

Is it possible to have zero electric field value between a negative and positive charges along the line joining the two charges?

no, the charge would have to be of equal sign to achieve this.

Prism!


Is the length of the median of a trapezoid is the average of the length of the bases?

If it is the line joining the midpoints of the parallel sides it most certainly is not.

How many parallel line segments in triangle and its midpoint triangle?

Three pairs. The line joining the midpoints of any two sides of a triangle is always parallel to the third side of the triangle (and half its length).
