The diagrams below show regions of equipotentials :
A positive charge is moved from A to B in each diagram :
In all the four cases the work done is the same
Minimum work is required to move q in figure (i)
Maximum work is required to move q in figure (ii)
Maximum work is required to move q in figure (iii)
W =q∆V
as ∆V is same in all conditions, work will be same.
