If a unit positive charge is taken from one point to another over an equipotential surface, then
- A work is done on the charge
- B work is done by the charge
- C work done is constant
- D no work is done
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) no work is done
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Potential difference between any two points on equipotential surface is zero. i.e., \(V_1-V_2=0\) \(\therefore\) Work done to move a unit positive charge from one point another, \(W=q\left(V_1-V_2\right)=q[0]=0\)
