Three point charges are initially infinitely far apart. Then, as figure
shows, they are brought together and placed at the corners of an
equilateral triangle.
Each side of the triangle has a length of 0.50m.
Determine the electric potential energy of
the triangular group.
In other words, determine the amount by
which the electric potential energy of the
group differs from that of the three charges
in their initial, infinitely separated, locations.
2. The charges are enclosed with in a surface at which neither the charge distribution
nor the potential distribution is known. How do you estimate the Electric and magnetic
fields across the surface? Illustrate with example.
3. Determine the force exerted on Q₂ by Q1 for charges Q₁ = 9x10μC and Q₂ = -5x10-5C if Q₁
is located at point (-3,2,-1) and Q₂ is located at (8, 8,4).
