Two charges $q_1$ and $q_2$ are fixed at points $A$ and $B$ respectively, separated by a distance of $30 \text{ cm}$. $A$ third charge $q_3$ is moved along a circular path of radius $40 \text{ cm}$ from point $C$ to point $D$. If the difference in potential energy due to the movement of $q_3$ from $C$ to $D$ is $q_3 K / (4 \pi \epsilon_0)$, find the value of $K$. (Given: $AC = 40 \text{ cm}$, $AB = 30 \text{ cm}$, $AD = 40 \text{ cm}$)

$A$ thin conducting spherical shell of radius $R$ has a charge $q$. Another charge $Q$ is placed at the center of the shell. The electrostatic potential at a point $P$ at a distance $R/2$ from the center of the shell is:
