Define an electrostatic potential energy.

A point chargr $Q$ is fixed A small charge $q$ and mass $m$ is given a velocity $v_0$ from infinity & perpendicular distance $r_0$ as shown. If distance of closest approach is $r_0/2$. The value of $q$ is [Given $mv_0^2 = \frac{{{Q^2}}}{{4\pi { \in _0}\,{r_0}}}$]

Consider a spherical shell of radius $R$ with a total charge $+ Q$ uniformly spread on its surface (centre of the shell lies at the origin $x=0$ ). Two point charges $+q$ and $-q$ are brought, one after the other from far away and placed at $x=-a / 2$ and $x=+a / 2( < R)$, respectively. Magnitude of the work done in this process is 

There are two equipotential surface as shown in figure. The distance between them is $r$. The charge of $-q\,$ coulomb is taken from the surface $A$ to $B$, the resultant work done will be

A test charge $q$ is made to move in the electric field of a point charge $Q$ along two different closed paths as per figure. First path has sections along and perpendicular to lines of electric field. Second path is a rectangular loop of the same area as the first loop. How does the work done compare in the two cases ?

In the figure the charge $Q$ is at the centre of the circle. Work done is maximum when another charge is taken from point $P$ to
