workdone =Qv : w =Qv :
but E =v/d : v = 25 x 0.02= 0.5v :
w = 2 x 10^—6 × 0.5 = 1 ×10^—6J

Work Done= ½QV
where Q = 2 microFarad = 2x10^-6F
V = Er = 25 x 0.02 = 0.5 (r is distance, E is electric field intensity)
Therefore, work done = ½x2x10^-6x0.05
Work done = 5 x 10^-7 J
Option C ✓ is supppsed to be the correct answer. Please make corrections

Dont take anything has been simple, please solve for us and make it simple and let the solvings be corresct

Intensity E = Force/ charge
Force = E × charge
Work done = distance × force
Work done = distance × E × charge
Work done = 0.02m × 25J/m × 2E-6c
Work done = 1E-6Jc or VC

the right answer is C
½QV = work done
V =0.02×25=0.5
½×2×10^–6 ×0.5= 5×10^-7
