A point charge is held at the centre of a circle of radius are two points on the circumference of the circle and is a point outside the circle. If represents work done by electric field in taking a charge from to and represents the workdone from to then




Important Questions on Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance


The charge is fired towards another charged particle which is fixed, with a speed . It approaches up to closest distance and then returns. If were given a speed , the closest distance of approach would be
