Question

A set of point charges is held in place at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side 16.0 cm, as shown in (Figure 1).

(A) What is the electric potential energy of the -3.00 nC charge? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

(B) What would be the maximum kinetic energy of the -3.00 nC charge if it were released from rest in the frictionless void of outer space? (Assume the other charges are held in place.) Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

(C) When will this maximum kinetic energy be achieved, just following the release of the charges or after a very long time?
