Two point charges q1 and q2 are separated by a distance 'd'. What is the increase in electrostatic potential energy of the system when q2 is moved towards q1 by a distance 'x' (where x < d and K = 14πε0)?
- 1K q1 q2 xd(d - x)✓
- 2K q1 q2d(d - x)
- 3- K q1 q2 xd2 - x2
- 4K q1 q2 xd2 - x2
Correct answer
K q1 q2 xd(d - x)
