If a point charge +q is taken first from...

If a point charge +q is taken first from A to C and then from C to B of a circle drawn with another point charge +q as centre as shown in the figure, then along which path more than will be done.

Text Solution

Every point on the circumference of a circle is at same potential and hence no work las to be done in moving the charge "+ q* from point A to B on the circumference of a circle drawn with another point charge + q at the centre.
