  1. minimum along path AB
  2. minimum along path AD
  3. minimum along path AE
  4. zero along all the paths

A
zero along all the paths
B
minimum along path AE
C
minimum along path AB
D
minimum along path AD
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Since,all A,B,C,D and E are lie on an equipotential surface.
we know,work=V×charge ; As,V=0
so, W=0
hence,The work done will be zero along all the paths.
