The work done to move a charge along an equipotential from A to B

The work done to move a unit charge from any point A and B is defined as


Since, A and B have the same potential, the above integral can be written as

In the circuit shown in Fig. 2.4. initially key K1 is closed and key K2 is open. Then K1 is opened and K2 is closed (order is important).

[Take Q1’ and Q2’ as charges on C1 and C2 and V1 and V2 as voltage respectively.]
