The work done to move a charge along an equipotential surface from A to b
A
cannot be defined as 
B
must be defined as 
C
is zero
D
can have a non-zero value
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Work done in displacing a charge particle is given by 
and the line integral of electric fleld from point A to B gives potential difference
For equipotential surface, 
and hence 
.
