Four point charges $q_{A}=2\; \mu C, q_{B}=-5\; \mu C,$ $q_{C}=2\; \mu C,$ and $q_{D}=-5\;\mu C$ are located at the corners of a square $ABCD$ of side $10\; cm .$ What is the force on a charge of $1 \;\mu C$ placed at the centre of the square?

Point charge $q$ moves from point $P$ to point $S$ along the path $PQRS$ (figure shown) in a uniform electric field $E$ pointing coparallel to the positive direction of the $X - $axis. The coordinates of the points $P,\,Q,\,R$ and $S$ are $(a,\,b,\,0),\;(2a,\,0,\,0),\;(a,\, - b,\,0)$ and $(0,\,0,\,0)$ respectively. The work done by the field in the above process is given by the expression
