Answer:

P = 72 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Charges,
q_1=q_2=2* 10^(-5)\ C

These charges are brought from infinity to a separation of 5 cm.

We need to find the increase in the electrical potential energy in the process.​ The formula for the electric potential energy is given by :


P=k(q_1q_2)/(r)\\\\P=9* 10^9* ((2* 10^(-5))^2)/(0.05)\\\\P=72\ J

So, the required electric potential energy is 72 J.
