Detailed Solution

Electric field due to positive charge is away from it and electric field due to negative charge is towards it so there cannot be a point on AB where electric field can be zero

Negative charge will experience a repulsion force due to −ve charge and attraction force due to +ve charge, so if pushed away from charges then a net attractive force and if pushed towards AB then a net repulsive force will be there so there will be oscillations.
