    1) To find the potential at the center, add the potentials of each individual charge at the center. Use the potential equation V=kQ/r and multiply by 4 since there are 4 equal charges. Form a triangle between each charge and the center to calculate the distance r. 2) To find the work needed to bring one charge to the center, use the work equation W=F∆d. Assume the charge moves halfway to the center, so the distance r is half of what it was originally. Plug this new r value into the potential equation from part 1 to calculate the final potential. Then use the work equation to calculate W. 3) The work equals the change in potential

    part 1) To find potential at the center we need to find potential of every charge onto the center and add them

    together . we will use the potential equation between two charges V=tF and multiply by 4 or add it 4 times .

    Then we will form a
