An equipotential surface is one in which all the points are at the same electric potential. If a charge is to be moved between any two points (say from point A to point B) on an equipotential surface, according to the formula dW=q⋅dV, the work done becomes zero.

hope it helps..

To show that work done in moving a test charge from one point to another point on an equipotential surface is zero..?

\bold{\boxed{\large{\boxed{\orange{\small{\boxed{\large{\red{\bold{\:ANSWER}}}}}}}}}}

\Large\bold\star\underline{\underline\textbf{Work done = \:}}

→ Considering the positions "A" and "B" from where we will move test charge.

→ We know that the work done in moving a unit positive charge from "A" to "B" is equal to the potential difference between "A" and "B" .

i.e.

» W (from A to B) = V (at B) - V (at A)

→ On equipotential surface,

» V (at A) = V (at B)

So,
» W (from A to B) = 0

→ Hence , work done in moving a test charge from one point to another point on an equipotential surface is zero.

Hope it helped u.
