How does the potential energy of system of charges change

Reference no: EM13526041

Three negative charges of equal magnitudes are positioned along the x-axis at x = -a, x=0, and x = +a respectively. The charge located at x=0 is moved away along the y-axis to a position (x,y) = (0, +a). How does the potential energy of the system of charges change as a result?
