Desiree Brennan · Answer 1

option D

Explanation:

Given,

Work done to push the charge = 10 J

When charge reaches the maximum position kinetic energy is zero and when it reaches its original position then the kinetic energy will be equal to energy at which it is moved.

Kinetic energy when it reaches its original position is equal to 10 J.

the correct answer is option D
