a)A point charge of +3.0 C is situated at the origin of a set of coordinates and a point charge of +6.0 C is situated at coordinates (3.0 m, 4.0 m). Calculate the change in the electrostatic potential energy of the system if the second charge is moved from its initial position to coordinates (3.0 m, 0.0 m). Assume the charges are in a vacuum.
b)ln a certain region of space, there is a uniform electric field of magnitude 10.0 V m-1 directed at 45.0 o to the positive direction of both the x and y axes. (There is no z component of the electric field.) The electric potential at the origin is +100 V. What is the electric potential at the point where x 4.00 m and y 3.00 m?
c)Three charges of 1.0 C are held fixed at the corners of an equilateral triangle of side length 1.0 m, in a vacuum. What is the total electrostatic potential energy of the three charges?
