Question 756: Electrostatics & Capacitance

Question

Three charges, each +q, are placed at the corners of an isosceles triangle ABC of sides BC and AC, 2$a$. D and E are the mid points of BC and CA. The work done in taking a charge Q from D to E is

Accepted Answer

AC = BC
V
D
= V
E
We have, W = Q (V
E
Ã¢ÂÂ V
D
)
$ \Rightarrow $ W = 0
