3. (a) A particle of charge q1 = +10.0 µC sits fixed at the coordinates (x = 0, y = +0.500 m). A second identical particle (q2 = q1) sits fixed at the coordinates (x = 0, y = -0.500 m). A third particle of mass m3 = 5.00 g and charge q3 = -4.00 µC is placed at point A, located at (x = 1.00 m, y = 0). Once released from rest, the second particle moves a distance of 0.500 m to point B. (a) Where is point B? (b) What is the change in its electric potential? (c) What is the change in its potential energy? (d) What is its velocity at point B? (e) If the environment were frictionless, what would the third particle's subsequent motion be like?
