Two charges - q and + q are located at points A(0, 0, - a) and B(0, 0, + a) respectively, work done in moving small test charge from point P(7, 0, 0) to Q(- 3, 0, 0) is ...... .

A

zero

B

`-3`J

C

4J

D

10J

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

P and Q points are on equator of dipole and potential at each point on equator of dipole is zero . Hence work is always zero.
