Question

S Four point charges each having charge Q are located at the corners of a square having sides of length a. Find expressions for(a) the total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges

Answer 1

The total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges is V  = √2Q/πÈa.

What do you mean by electric potential?

The amount of work needed to move a unit charge from a reference point to a specific point against an electric field. It's SI unit is volt.       

V = kq/r

Where V represents electric potential, K is coulomb constant, q  is Charge and r is distance between any  two around charge to the point charge.

Electric potential at O due to four charges is given by,

V = 4KQ/ r

where, r = √2a/2 = a/√2

V = 4k × Q√2/a

V  = √2Q/πÈa

The total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges is V  = √2Q/πÈa.
