Question

In a non-linear electric field, a charged particle returns to its initial point sometime after it is released in the field. The work done by the field is given by
  1. 0
  2. Some constant 0
  3. None of these

A
0
B
Some constant 0
C
D
None of these
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Let the potential at its initial point be VA
work done =VBVA
=VAVA(sinceVB=VA)
=0
Thus the work done by the field is zero.

Option (B) is correct.
