Two charges $7 \ \mu C$ and $-4 \ \mu C$ are placed at $(-7 \ cm, 0, 0)$ and $(7 \ cm, 0, 0)$ respectively. Given $\varepsilon_0 = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \ C^2 \ N^{-1} \ m^{-2}$,the electrostatic potential energy of the charge configuration is: (in $J$)

In the first configuration $(1)$ as shown in the figure,four identical charges $(q_0)$ are kept at the corners $A, B, C$ and $D$ of a square of side length $a$. In the second configuration $(2)$,the same charges are shifted to the midpoints $G, E, H$ and $F$ of the sides of the square. If $K = \frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0}$,the difference between the potential energies of configuration $(2)$ and $(1)$ is given by:

When two electrons $(e^-)$ move towards each other,the electrostatic potential energy of the system will:

Derive the formula for the electric potential energy of a system of two point charges.

$A$ molecule of a substance has a permanent dipole moment $p$. $A$ mole of this substance is polarized by applying a strong electrostatic field $E$. The direction of the field is suddenly changed by an angle of $60^{\circ}$. If $N$ is the Avogadro's number,the amount of work done by the field is:

Three point charges of $2 \ mC$ each are kept at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side $50 \ cm$. If the system is supplied energy at the rate of $2 \ kW$,the time taken to move one of the charges to the midpoint of the line joining the other two charges is (in $s$)
