Electric potential Energy of a System of Charge - Physics Class 12

Electric potential Energy of a System of Charge—

The Electric Potential Energy of a system of point charges is defined as the work required to bring the charges constituting the system to their respective position from infinity.

Let we have three point charges q1, q2 and q3 which are initially placed at infinity.

To bring the charge q1 from infinity to its position, no work is Required.

When q2 is brought to its position B, q1 is already present,
