Question

A +35 μC point charge is placed 38 cm from an identical +35 μC charge. How much work would be required for an external force to move a +0.30 μC test charge from a point midway between them to a point 11 cm closer to either of the charges?

(II) $A+25 \mu C$ point charge is placed 6.0 $\mathrm{cm}$ from an identical $+25 \mu \mathrm{C}$ point charge. How much work would be required by an external force to move a $+0.18 \mu \mathrm{C}$ test charge from a point midway between them to a point 1.0 $\mathrm{cm}$ closer to either of the charges?

00:02 Initially, both charges q1 and q2, they were separated by 38 cm.
00:07 And there was one charge, capital q, which was at the center of both of them.
00:12 And it was given that q1 is equal to q2, which is equal to plus 35 microchulam and q was 0 .30 micropoleum.
00:23 We want to calculate the work done by moving this capital q charge by 11 cm.
00:28 So, the new situation will look like something this.
00:32 So, this is q1, this is q2.
00:34 And q will be somewhere here...
