NEET Physics Electric Potential MCQ Question
Consider two conductors with charges +Q and -Q having capacitance C. If the potential difference between the conductors is V, what is the work done in transferring a small charge dQ from the negative to the positive conductor?
dW = V * dQ
dW = (Q/C) * dQ
dW = (V/C) * Q
dW = Q * dQ / C
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The work done in transferring a small charge dQ against a potential difference V is given by dW = V * dQ, as per the relation between work, charge, and potential difference.
