(2 points) What is the potential at some point P that is 1.0 m away? c. (2 points) What is the electric field magnitude at P? d. (2 points) A second point charge, ?2 = +2.0 C, is brought from infinity and positioned at point P. What is the potential energy of this second charge? e. (2 points) After charge 2 is fixed at point P, what will be the potential energy of charge 1? f. (1 point) What is the total potential energy of the system of two charges now that they are positioned one meter apart in space? g. (1 point) So how much work was required to bring the second charge from infinity and fix it in place at point P?
