Answer:

No, just because the electric field is zero at a particular point, it does not necessarily mean that the electric potential is zero at that point. ... At the midpoint between the charges, the electric field due to the charges is zero, but the electric potential due to the charges at that same point is non-zero.

Step-by-step explanation:
