Physics Question on electrostatic potential and capacitance

There is 1010 units of charge at the centre of circle of radius 1m1\, m. The work done in moving 11 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=10 units, radius of circle (r)=10m(r)=10\, m and charge moved around circle =1=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.
