Q.

A point charge 2×10-2C is moved from P to S in a uniform electric field of 30 N C-1 directed along positive x-axis. If coordinates of P and S are (1, 2, 0) m and (0,0,0) m respectively, the work done by electric field will be                 [2023]

1 1200 mJ  
2 600 mJ  
3 − 600 mJ  
4 − 1200 mJ

WE=qE·S

       =2×10-2[30i^·(-i^)]

        =2×10-2(-30)=-60×10-2
