1
Q
What is electrostatic potential energy in terms of an external force?
A
The work done by an external force in bringing a charge from point R to point P against the electrostatic field.

Q
A
3
Q
What is electric potential energy dependent on?
A
Only on the initial and final positions, not the path.

Q
What is the cosine rule used for deriving Electric Potential due to Dipole?
A
Cosθ = b 2+c 2-a 2/2bc
