Detailed Solution

Given two charges q1 and q2 are placed 30 cm apart as shown in the figure. A third charge q3 moved from C to D.
Radius  = 40 cmk=q2102=8q2
Given the change in potential energy of the system is q3k4π0. We have to find the value of k. 
We solve it as follows:
The change in potential energy of system is
UDUC as discussed under: When charge q3
is at C, then its potential energy is 
UC=14π0q1q30.4+q2q30.5
Where charge q3 is at D, then UD is
UD=14π0q1q30.4q2q30.1
Hence, change in potential energy is ΔU
UD=14π0q2q30.1q2q30.5.(i)
But given, ΔU=q3k4πϵ0ii
On equating (i) and (ii), we get
q3k4π0=14π0q2q30.1q2q30.5
We get,
k=q2102=8q2
