When charge of
is shifted from infinity to a point in an electric field, it is found that work done by electrostatic forces is
. If the charge is doubled and taken again from infinity to the same point without accelerating it, then find the amount of work done by electric field and against electric field.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
because

So, if now the charge is doubled and taken from infinity then
or
ele
