Answer:

-32.5 * 10^-5 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of this system of charges is;

Ue = kq1q2/r

Where;

k is the Coulumb's constant

q1 and q2 are the magnitudes of the charges

r is the distance of separation between the charges

Substituting values;

Ue = 9.0×10^9 N⋅m2/C2 * 5.5 x 10^-8 C *( -2.3 x10^-8) C/(3.5 * 10^-2)

Ue= -32.5 * 10^-5 J

The potential energy of this two particle system relative to the potential energy at infinite separation is [tex]\bold {-32.5x 10^-^5\ J}[/tex].

   

The potential energy of this system of charges,  

[tex]\bold {Ue = k\dfrac{q1q2}{r}}[/tex]

Where;  

k - Coulumb's constant  

q1 and q2 - magnitudes of the charges  

r - distance between the charges

Put the values in the equation,

[tex]\bold {Ue = 9.0x10^9\times \dfrac {5.5 x 10^{-8} C \times -2.3 x10^{-8} C}{3.5 \times 10^{-2}}}\\\\\bold {Ue= -32.5 x 10^-^5\ J}[/tex]

Therefore, the the potential energy of this two particle system relative to the potential energy at infinite separation is [tex]\bold {-32.5x 10^-^5\ J}[/tex].
