1. The electric potential at the middle is


ϕ=kq1r+kq2r=2696 V.\phi=\frac{kq_1}{r}+\frac{kq_2}{r}=-2696\text{ V}.

2. The potential near surface is


ϕA=kqr=43.14106 V.\phi_A=\frac{kq}{r}=43.14·10^6\text{ V}.

The potential is 1.5 MV is at the following distance from the center:


r=kqϕB=0.036 m.r=\frac{kq}{\phi_B}=0.036\text{ m}.
