The electric potential on the surface of a charged spherical conductor of radius \(5 \mathrm{~cm}\) is \(200 \mathrm{~V}\). Work done in moving a charge of \(+5 \mathrm{C}\) from a point \(A\) to another point \(B\) situated at distances of \(15 \mathrm{~cm}\) and \(10 \mathrm{~cm}\) respectively from the centre of the sphere is

  1. A \(16.7 \mathrm{~J}\)
  2. B \(22.3 \mathrm{~J}\)
  3. C \(88.8 \mathrm{~J}\)
  4. D \(166.7 \mathrm{~J}\)
