Detailed Solution

The potential of the point ๐ด is given as ๐‘‰ = 3๐‘‰. 

Potential difference can be represented as follow:

 Potential = Work done  Charge 

โ‡’  V=WQ

โ‡’  W=Qร—V

โ‡’  W=2ร—3=6J

Therefore, the work done will be equal to the product of potential and charge. The work done to move the charge from infinity is 6๐ฝ.
