Question

Another positive test charge is brought near a positive test charge. Potential energy across any of the test charge will

  1. Increase
  2. Decrease
  3. Remain constant
  4. Increase and then decrease

hintHint:

Increase

The correct answer is: Increase


    • When two like charges get closer against the electrostatic force of repulsion, the potential energy increases.
    • So, the correct option is a.
