Two Point Charges of the Same Charge

A function to calculate the electric potential energy of two identical charges:

The electric field of two identical charges:

The electric potential of a two identical charges:
(The contours represent factors of 10 difference in energy.)

Both the electric field and electric potential of two identical charges on the same plot:
(Note how the field is always perpendicular to the equipotential lines.)
