There are two equipotential surface as shown in figure. The distance between them is r. The charge of –q coulomb is taken from the surface A to B, the resultant work done will be

  • Option 1)

    W = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0 } \frac{q}{r}

  • Option 2)

    W = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0 } \frac{q}{r^2}

  • Option 3)

    W = - \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0 } \frac{q}{r^2}

  • Option 4)

As we learned

Equipotential Surface -

The Direction of electric field is Perpendicular to equipotential surface.

-

 

 

 

The work done is given by W = q(V_2 - V_1) = 0 because of equipotential  surface. Both are connected to each other. Potential will be same.


Option 1)

W = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0 } \frac{q}{r}

Option 2)

W = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0 } \frac{q}{r^2}

Option 3)

W = - \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0 } \frac{q}{r^2}

Option 4)

W = zero
