In summary, "A pretty challenging physics Q" refers to a question or problem that requires a deep understanding of physics principles and concepts, and may involve complex calculations or critical thinking. A physics question is considered challenging if it requires the application of multiple concepts, involves real-world scenarios, or requires creative problem-solving techniques. The key to tackling a challenging physics question is to have a strong understanding of the underlying principles and concepts involved, break the problem down into smaller, more manageable parts, and approach it systematically. Resources such as textbooks, online tutorials, and study groups can also be helpful in solving challenging physics questions. To improve problem-solving skills in physics, regular practice and active engagement in critical thinking are essential, as well as seeking out challenging problems and

hey guyz, this Q is pretty hard. I think.

Identical point charges (+50uC) are placed at the corners of a square with sides of 2.0-m length. How much external energy is required to bring a fifth identical charge from infinity to the geometric center of the square?

Thnaks guyz
