The displacement of a charge $Q$ in the electric field $\vec{E} = e_1\hat{i} + e_2\hat{j} + e_3\hat{k}$ is $\vec{r} = a\hat{i} + b\hat{j}$. The work done is

  • A
    $Q(ae_1 + be_2)$
  • B
    $Q\sqrt{(ae_1)^2 + (be_2)^2}$
  • C
    $Q(e_1 + e_2)\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$
  • D
    $Q\sqrt{e_1^2 + e_2^2}(a + b)$

Obtain the equation for the electric potential energy of a system of two electric charges in an external electric field.

Consider a spherical shell of radius $R$ with a total charge $+Q$ uniformly spread on its surface (centre of the shell lies at the origin $x=0$). Two point charges $+q$ and $-q$ are brought,one after the other,from far away and placed at $x=-a/2$ and $x=+a/2$ $(a < 2R)$,respectively. The magnitude of the work done in this process is:
