31 m/s ÷ 9 m/s² = 3.44 s

Time = Change in velocity divided (÷) by acceleration.

Point charges q1=+2.00μC and q2=−2.00μC are placed at adjacent corners of a square for which the length of each side is 5.00 cm.

The electric potential is a scalar unit, so we don't have to struggle with the vectors. The formula that gives electric potential is

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q}{r}$

1) At point a, the electric potential is the sum of the potentials due to q1 and q2. So,

$V_a = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_2}{r_2}$

The distance from the center of the square to one of the corners is $\sqrt2 L/2 = 0.035m$

$V_a = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.035} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{-2\times10^{-6}}{0.035} = 0$

The answer is zero, because the point charges are at equal distances and their magnitudes are also equal but their directions are opposite.

2) $V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_1}{r_1} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q_2}{r_2}$

$r_1 = 0.05\sqrt2m\\r_2 = 0.05m$

$V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.05\sqrt2} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{-2\times10^{-6}}{0.05}\\V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{2\times10^{-6}}{0.05} (\frac{1}{\sqrt2}-1)\\V_b = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} (4\times 10^{-5})(-0.29)\\V_b = (-\frac{2.9\times10^{-6}}{\pi\epsilon_0})[tex]3) The work done on q3 by q1 and q2 is equal to the difference between energies. This is the work-energy theorem. So,[tex]W = U_b - U_a$
