I am having trouble with Part (B) of this practice problem. I have tried multiple times and keep calculating the wrong answer…
Charge q1 = 8 nC is located at the coordinate system origin, while charge q2 = 4.63 nC is located at (a, 0), where a = 1.1 m. The point P has coordinates (a, b), where b = 0.55 m. A third charge q3 = 16.5 nC will be placed later.
(A) Find the electric potential Vp at point P, in volts. Assume the potential is zero at infinity.
The answer I got (it's correct): Vp = 134.3 ✓
(B) How much work W, in joules, would you have to do to bring the third charge, q3, from very far away to the point P?
Answer: W = ????????
Will upvote! Thank you :)
