Calculate the amount ofwork done to dissociate a system of three charge 1muC,1muCand-4muC placed on the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side 10 cm.

Answer»

SOLUTION :`q_(A)=1xx10^(-6)C=q_(B)`
`q_(C)=-4XX10^(-6)C`
`r=10cm=0.1m`

Work done
`=W_(AB)+W_(BC)+W_(AC)`
`=(1)/(4piepsilon_(0)r)[q_(A)q_(B)+q_(B)q_(C)+q_(C)q_(A)]`
`=9xx10^(9)xx(1)/(0.1)[1xx1-4xx1-4xx1]xx10^(-12)`
`=(-9xx10^(9)xx7xx10^(-12))/(0.1)`
`=-.63J`
