Equipotential surface has same potential at all points on the surface-Thus potential difference between two points is zero i-e- -x394-V-0-xA0-Work done in moving a charge over an equipotential surface W-q-x394-V-x27F9- W-0

If a unit charge is taken from one point to another over an equipotential surface, then work done on the charge is :PositiveNegativeZeroConstant

Equipotential surface has same potential at all points on the surface.Thus potential difference between two points is zero i.e. ΔV=0 Work done in moving a charge over an equipotential surface W=qΔV⟹ W=0

Equipotential surface has same potential at all points on the surface.
Thus potential difference between two points is zero i.e. $Δ V = 0$
Work done in moving a charge over an equipotential surface $W = q Δ V$
$⟹$ $W = 0$
