This question contains Statement-1 and Statement-2. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.

Statement-1:  For a charged particle moving from point P to point Q , the net work done by an electrostatic field on the particle is independent of the path connecting point P to point Q.

Statement-2:  The net work done by a conservative force on an object moving along a closed loop is zero.

 

  • Option 1)

    Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false

  • Option 2)

    Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is the correct explanation of Statement-1.

As we learnt in 

Work done in moving a charge -

Always be zero in equipotential surface.

-

 

Work done (W) = (V_B - V_A)q 

V_B \: and\: V_A only depend on the initial and final position and not on the path of the loop is completed 

Net work done is done as the initial and final potentials are the same

 


Option 1)

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false
