Group 17 is the second column from the right in the periodic table and contains six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (As), and (Ts). Astatine and are radioactive elements with very short half-lives and thus do not occur naturally.
Answer:
Potential energy is energy that is stored – or conserved - in an object or substance. This stored energy is based on the position, arrangement or state of the object or substance. You can think of it as energy that has the 'potential' to do work.
The total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges is V = √2Q/πÈa.
<h3>What do you mean by electric potential? </h3>
The amount of work needed to move a unit charge from a reference point to a specific point against an electric field. It's SI unit is volt.
V = kq/r
Where V represents electric potential, K is coulomb constant, q is Charge and r is distance between any two around charge to the point charge.
Electric potential at O due to four charges is given by,
V = 4KQ/ r
where, r = √2a/2 = a/√2
V = 4k × Q√2/a
V = √2Q/πÈa
The total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges is V = √2Q/πÈa.
