Two Point Charges Are Separated by 1

Question 6

Multiple Choice

Two point charges are separated by 1.00 × 10-2 m. One charge is -2.8 × 10-8 C; and the other is +2.8 × 10-8 C. The points A and B are located 2.5 × 10-3 m from the lower and upper point charges as shown. Two point charges are separated by 1.00 × 10-2 m. One charge is -2.8 × 10-8 C; and the other is +2.8 × 10-8 C. The points A and B are located 2.5 × 10-3 m from the lower and upper point charges as shown.   -If a proton, which has a charge of +1.60 × 10<sup>-</sup><sup>19</sup> C, is moved from rest at A to rest at B, what is change in electrical potential energy of the proton? A) +2.1 × 10<sup>-</sup><sup>14</sup> J B) +3.2 × 10<sup>-</sup><sup>14</sup> J C) - 4.3 × 10<sup>-</sup><sup>15</sup> J D) - 5.4 × 10<sup>-</sup><sup>15</sup> J E) zero joules
