MCQ
Work done in moving an object through an equipotential surface is:
- APositive
- BNegative
- ✓Zero
- DDepends on the field direction
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Zero
Work done is given difference in potentials. In an equipotential surface, all points will have same potential. Thus work done is zero
