Physics Question on electrostatic potential and capacitance
There is 10 units of charge at the centre of circle of radius 1m. The work done in moving 1 unit of charge once around the circle is :
A
150 unit
B
100 unit
C
10 unit
D
zero
Answer
zero
Explanation
Solution
Here charge at centre =10 units, radius of circle (r)=10m and charge moved around circle =1 unit, we know that when the charge is at the centre of a circle, the circumference will be equipotential, so work done in moving a charge around the circle is zero.
