A square of side ‘$a$’ has charge $Q$ at its centre and charge ‘$q$’ at one of the corners. The work required to be done in moving the charge ‘$q$’ from the corner to the diagonally opposite corner is
A
Zero
B$\frac{{Qq}}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}}$
C$\frac{{Qq\sqrt 2 }}{{4\pi { \in _0}a}}$
D$\frac{{Qq}}{{2\pi { \in _0}a}}$

A
Zero
a (a) From symmetry of the figure all corner have same electric potential. Therefore work done in moving the charge $q$ from the corner to the diagonally opposite corner is zero.

Two charged capacitors have their outer plates fixed and inner plates connected by a spring of force constant ' $k$ '. The charge on each capacitor is q. Find the extension in the spring at equilibrium
Capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor becomes $4/3$ times its original value if a dielectric slab of thickness $t = d/2$ is inserted between the plates ($d$ is the separation between the plates). The dielectric constant of the slab is
An infinite number of charges each equal to $0.2\,\mu C$ are arranged in a line at distances $1\,m, 2\,m, 4\,m, 8\,m......$ from a fixed point. The potential at fixed point is ......$kV$
A metallic sphere has a charge of $10\,\mu C$. A unit negative charge is brought from $A$ to $B$ both $100\,cm$ away from the sphere but $A$ being east of it while $B$ being on west. The net work done is........$joule$
A solid conducting sphere having a charge $Q$ is surrounded by an uncharged concentric conducting hollow spherical shell. Let the potential difference between the surface of the solid sphere and that of the outer surface of the hollow shell be $V$. If the shell is now given a charge of $-3Q$, the new potential difference between the same two surfaces is......$V$
