In the figure shown below, q₁=2nC, q2=-3nC, and qs=-4nC are on the corners of an equilateral triangle (each side is 5 mm). How much work is needed to take charge q₁ to infinity? (hint: the amount of work is the change in potential energy, so to calculate work, you need to calculate the potential energy before and after moving charge q₁ to infinity). D 9₁ a.
