2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
medium
The work which is required to be done to make an arrangement of four particles each having a charge $+q$ such that the particles lie at the four corners of a square of side $a$ is .......
A
$(4+\sqrt{2}) \frac{k q^2}{a}$
B
$4 \frac{ kq ^2}{ a }$
C
$(2+\sqrt{2}) \frac{k q^2}{a}$
D
$2 \frac{k q^2}{a}$
Solution

(a)
$U=\frac{4 k q^2}{a}+\frac{2 k q^2}{a \sqrt{2}}$
$W=U$
