>q1's electric field did work on q2. The work done by the q1's
electric field on q2 equals the kinetic energy gained by q2, E2.
Hmm. This may lead to some dubious energy accounting. I'd be more
comfortable saying that the "excess" electric field energy of the
initial *system* was the source of q2's ultimate kinetic energy.
