Three fixed charges at triangle vertices and midpoint P.
Three fixed charges at triangle vertices and midpoint P.
Three point charges are fixed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle of side length \(d\). Two of the vertices each hold a charge of \(+q\), and the third vertex holds a charge of \(-q\). A fourth particle with charge \(+q\) is brought from infinitely far away to point \(P\), which is located at the midpoint of the line segment connecting the two \(+q\) charges. Which of the following expressions represents the work done by an external agent to bring the fourth particle to point \(P\)?
