NEET Physics Electric Potential MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 12
In the diagram shown above of two conductors with charges Q and -Q, what is the work done to transfer a small charge dq from conductor 2 to conductor 1, if the potential difference V' is given by Q'/C?
A
V' * dq
B
C * dq / V'
C
dq / Q'
D
V' / C
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The work done to transfer a charge in an electric field is the product of the potential difference and the charge. Therefore, work done = V' * dq.
