Problem

Two identical point charges +q are fixed at points X and Y separated by a distance 2a in free space. A third identical charge +q is slowly brought from infinity to the midpoint O of XY. The change in electric potential energy of the system is a) kq2ak\dfrac{q^{2}}{a} b) 4kq2a4k\dfrac{q^{2}}{a} c) 2kq2a2k\dfrac{q^{2}}{a} d) 5kq22a\dfrac{5kq^{2}}{2a}
