A metallic sphere has a charge of `10 mu C`. A unit negative charge is brought from `A` to `B` both `100 cm` away from the sphere but `A` being east of it while `B` being on west. The net work done is

1/5 ergs

`-1//10` ergs

2/50 ergs

zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Equipotential surface so work done =0.
