Two charges $-q$ each are separated by distance $2d$. A third charge $+ q$ is kept at mid point $O$. Find potential energy of $+ q$ as a function of small distance $x$ from $O$ due to $-q$ charges. Sketch $P.E.$ $v/s$ $x$ and convince yourself that the charge at $O$ is in an unstable equilibrium.

Assertion : Electric potential and electric potential energy are different quantities.

Reason : For a system of positive test charge and point charge electric potential energy $=$ electric potential.
