Two point charges $a$ and $b$,whose magnitudes are the same,are positioned at a certain distance from each other with $a$ at the origin. $A$ graph is drawn between the electric field strength $E$ at points between $a$ and $b$ and the distance $x$ from $a$. $E$ is taken as positive if it is along the line joining $a$ to $b$. From the graph,it can be decided that:
