Question

As shown in 24.10a, a charge q1 = 2.00 μC is located at the origin and a charge q2 = 26.00 μC is located at (0, 3.00) m.
(A) Find the total electric potential due to these charges at the point P, whose coordinates are (4.00, 0) m.                                                                                  (B) Find the change in potential energy of the system of two charges plus a third charge q3 = 3.00 μC as the latter charge moves from infinity to point P (24.10b).
