Two positive charges of magnitude q are ...

Two positive charges of magnitude `q` are placed at the ends of a side ( side 1) of a square of side `2a` . Two negative charges of the same magnitude are kept at the other corners . Staring from rest , a charge `Q` moves from the middle of side `1` to the centre of square , its kinetic energy at the centre of square is -.

A

`1/(4pi in_(0))(2qQ)/a(1-1/sqrt(15))`

B

zero

C

`1/(4pi in_(0))(2qQ)/a(1+1/sqrt(5))`

D

`1/(4pi in_(0))(2qQ)/a(1-1/sqrt(5))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`DeltaK=W=Q(V_(A)-V_(B))`
`=Q[((2kq)/a-(2kq)/(asqrt(5)))-0]`
`=(2KqQ)/(a)(1-1/sqrt(5))`
