Two 3.7 microcoulomb charges are 0.8 m apart. how much energy (in millijoule) went into assembling these two charges? enter a number with one digit behind the decimal point.

Explanation:

The potential energy of a system of two charges is given by the expression

Q₁ and Q₂ are two charges and R is distance between the charges.

Given Q₁ = Q₂ = 3.7 X 10⁻⁶ , R = .8 and K = 9 x 10⁹

Putting these values in the equation we have,

" alt="\frac{9\times 10^9\times 3.7\times10^{-6} 3.7\times 10^{-6}}{.8}" />" />

Potential energy = 154.01 x 10⁻³ J

This energy have been spent to bring these repelling two charges at this close distance . The energy spent have been stored as potential energy here which has been calculated.

potential energy is directly proportional to height.

more height = more potential energy.

greatest increase in height = greatest increase in potential energy

where are the points with the greatest increase in height ?

has to be c-e or d-e .

b.
