Six charges +q, q, +q, q, +q, and q are fixed at the corners of a hexagon of side d as shown in the figure. The work done in bringing a charge q0 to the centre of the hexagon from infinity is
( - permittivity of free space)

- A
- BZero
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B

Work done $$ = {q_0}\,.\,({V_0} - {V_\infty })$$
$$ = \left\{ {{{3kq} \over d} + \left( {{{ - 3kq} \over d}} \right)} \right\}{q_0}$$
= Zero
