The electrostatic energy of a nucleus of charge $Ze$ is equal to $\frac{k Z^2 e^2}{R}$,where $k$ is a constant and $R$ is the nuclear radius. The nucleus divides into two daughter nuclei of charges $\frac{Ze}{2}$ and equal radii. The change in electrostatic energy in the process when they are far apart is
