Explanation / Answer

U = k Q1 Q2 / r

1) U = (9 x 10^-9 x 16 x 10^-6 x -16 x 10^-6) / (8 x 10^2)

U = -2.88 x 10^-21 J

2) U = (9 x 10^-9 x 16 x 10^-6 x -8.4 x 10^-6) / (4 x 10^-2) + (9 x 10^-9 x -16 x 10^-6 x -8.4 x 10^-6) / (12 x 10^-2)

U = (-3.02 x 10^-17) + (1 x 10^-17)

U = -2.02 x 10^-17 J

3) U =  (9 x 10^-9 x 16 x 10^-6 x -8.4 x 10^-6) /  (4 x 10^-2) + (9 x 10^-9 x -16 x 10^-6 x -8.4 x 10^-6) / (4 x 10^-2)

U = (-3.02 x 10^-17) + (3.02 x 10^-17)

U = 0

4) U =  (9 x 10^-9 x 16 x 10^-6 x -8.4 x 10^-6) /  (8 x 10^-2) + (9 x 10^-9 x -16 x 10^-6 x -8.4 x 10^-6) / (8 x 10^-2)

U = 0
