W=0,062J

Explanation:

V=kqd voltage of any charge on the any point
VA=kq174 potential of charge of -2C on the point(7,5)
VB=kq185 potential of charge of -2C on the point(9,-2)
VAB=VBVA
VAB=kq(185174)
VAB=kq74857485
W=qVAB
energy required for charge of 4C to move from(7,5) to (9,-2)
W=4kq74857485
W=4(2)74857485*
W=88,6029,21979,31
W=0,062J
