Q. Two charges of $4\ \mu C$ each are placed at the corners $A$ and $B$ of an equilateral triangle of side length $0.2\ m$ in air. The electric potential at $C$ is $\left\lbrack \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}} = 9 \times 10^{9}\frac{N - m^{2}}{C^{2}} \right\rbrack$

A) $9 \times 10^{4}\ V$
B) $18 \times 10^{4}\ V$
C) $36 \times 10^{4}\ V$
D) $36 \times 10^{- 4}\ V$
Explanation

(c) Potential at $C = \left( 9 \times 10^{9} \times \frac{4 \times 10^{- 6}}{0.2} \right) \times 2 = 36 \times 10^{4}\ V$
