What is the expression for the potential energy of a system of two charges q1 and q2 separated by a distance r?
A
U = (1/4πε0) * (q1 * q2 / r)
B
U = (1/4π) * (ε0 * q1 * q2 * r)
C
U = (1/2) * (q1 * q2 / r)
D
U = (1/4πε0) * (q1 + q2) / r
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The potential energy of a system of two charges q1 and q2 is given by the formula U = (1/4πε0) * (q1 * q2 / r), as stated in the context provided.
