Electrostatic potential
Question

Charges are placed on the vertices of a square as shown. Let E be the electric field and V the potential at the centre. If the charges on A and B are interchanged with those D on D and C respectively, then

 




 

Easy
Solution

V remains unchanged. Because with the change in position of charges, distances AO,BO,CO and DO remains same. The direction of E changes.
