Question
The figure shows the equipotential contours due to three point charges, labelled in volts. Select T-True, F-False for each of the statements below. E.g., if the first is true and the rest false, enter TFFFF.
(1) -118.1 J of work is done to move a charge of 1 coulomb from d to c along the contour.
(2) The charge located at (0,0) is less than the charge located at (-5,5).
(3) The potential at b is greater than the potential at d.
(4) The direction of the electric field at e is along the tangent to the contour.
(5) A charge released from rest on one of these contours will move along the contour.
(6) Two of the charges are negative and one is positive.

FFFFFF
1) F because potential difference is zero.
2) F because it is more as same potential is even at far point of origin.
3) F because potential at b is less than that at d.
4)F because it is along normal.
5) F it will move normal to it in direction of electrostatic force.
6)F because two are positive, one negative.
