As per the diagram a point charge +q is placed at the origin O. Work done in taking another point charge Q from the point A [coordinates (0, )] to another point B


- Azero
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
Work done is equal to zero because the
potential of A and B are the same =

No work is done if a particle does not change its potential energy.
i.e. initial potential energy = final potential energy.
