Work done in carrying 2 C charge in a circular path of radius 2 m around a charge of 10 C is _________.
Step 1: Given parameters
Radius of circular path, .
Charge,
Step 2: Formula used
Calculate the work done in carrying a charge in circular path by using the formula given as,
Here. is the charge, and is the change in potential.
Step 3: Concept used
Step 3: Calculation
As we know that the potential is same at each point in a circular orbit. Thus,
Substitute the given values in equation (1).
Hence, for a conservative force work done over a closed loop is zero.
