12th Class Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank MCQ - Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

  • question_answer
    Figure shows some equipotential lines distributed in space. A charged object is moved from point A to point (B) (NCERT EXEMPLAR)

    A) The work done in figure (i) is the greatest

    B) The work done in figure (ii) is the least

    C) The work done is the same in figure (i), (ii) and (iii)

    D) The work done in figure (iii) is greater than figure (ii) but equal to that in figure (i)

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c) The work done is the same in figure (i), (ii) and (iii) In all the three figures, \[{{V}_{A}}=20V\]and \[{{V}_{B}}=40\,V\] Work done in carrying a charge q from A to B is \[W=q\left( {{V}_{B}}-{{V}_{A}} \right)\] Hence, work done is same in all figures.
