Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 6**: A +4.0 μC and a -4.0 μC point charge are placed as shown in the figure. Find the electric potential at points A and B, and find the electric potential difference \( \Delta V_{BA} \) \((k = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0} = 9.0 \times 10^9 \, \text{N} \cdot \text{m}^2/\text{C}^2)\).
**Diagram Description**:
- There is a horizontal line representing point A and a perpendicular line downward to point B.
- The +4.0 μC charge is located 0.30 m to the left of point A.
- The -4.0 μC charge is located 0.30 m to the left and 0.40 m directly below point A, horizontally aligned with point B.
- The distances between the points and the charges are marked as 0.30 m and 0.40 m.
