|
|
| 2. Compute the potential energy of a known charge at a given distance from other known charges and state whether the energy is negative or positive. |
|

|
| 3. Compute the absolute potential at any point in the vicinity of a number of known charges. |
|
|
|
| 4. Use your knowledge of potential difference to calculate the work required to move a known charge from any point A to another point B in an electric field created by one or more point charges. |
