Suppose a charge of -2.40 µC is at the origin and a charge of 3.10 µC is at the point (0, 3.00) m.

(a) Find the electric potential at (4.00, 0) m, assuming the electric potential is zero at infinity. What is electric potential? What factors affect the size of the electric potential at a particular point?

(b) Find the work necessary to bring a 4.10 µC charge from infinity to the point (4.00, 0) m.
