Transcribed Image Text:A charge of +122 µC is fixed at the center of a square that is 0.44 m on a side. How much work is done by the electric force as a charge of +8.6 µC is moved from one corner of the square to any other empty corner?
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given value---

  • q1 = 122 micro C. 
  • side of square = 0.44 m.
  • q2 = 8.6 micro C. 

We have to find---
