Shown in the figure are two arcs of charge centered at the origin. The inner arc has a
radius of curvature of 0.2 meters and a linear charge density of -50 C/m. The outer
arc has a radius of curvature of 0.6 meters and a linear charge density of 80 μC/m.
With theta given as 30 degrees, calculate the work it would take to bring a 60 μC
point charge from infinity to the origin.
Enter your answer in units of joules rounding your final answer to two decimal
places. If the work is negative, a negative value must be entered.
