Four charges are brought from infinity and configured as shown in the diagram below. The magnitude of each charge, Q=5.00nC and the distance, d=4.00cm. a) What is the potential energy of the configuration? b) Determine the magnitude and direction of the electric field at the field point P due to the charge configuration. c) Determine the electric potential at the field point P (relative to zero at infinity) due to the charge configuration. A negative charge of magnitude 4.00nC is now brought from a very distant point and placed at the field point P. d) Determine the magnitude and direction of the electric force on this charge at the field point P due to the presence of the other charges in the configuration. e) Calculate the work done to bring this charge to the field point P from the distant point.
