Charges are placed on the vertices of a square as shown. Let E r be the electric field and V the potential at the centre. If the charges on A and B are interchanged with those on D and C respectively, then :-

A

(a)E remains unchanged, V changes

B

(b)both E and V change

C

(c)E and V remain unchanged

D

(d)E changes, V remains unchanged

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
