A point charge q moves from point P to pont S along the path PQRS (fig.) in a uniform electric field E pointing parallel to the poistive direction of the X-axis. The coordinates of the points P, Q, R and S are(a, b, O), (2a, O, O)(a, -b,`ulO`) and `(O, O, O) respectively. The work done by the field in the above process is given by the expresison............

A

`qaE`

B

`-qaE`

C

`q(sqrt(a^(2)+b^(2)))E`

D

`3qEsqrt(a^(2)+b^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

if the charge is kept at `A` then maximum and minimum potentials at `D` and `C` respectively
