Topic 2: Electric Potential Energy & Work
Done in Carrying a Charge15. The potential energy of particle in a force field is $U=\frac{A}{r^{2}}-\frac{B}{r}$, where $A$ and $B$ are positive constants and $r$ is the distance of particle from the centre of the field. For stable equilibrium, the distance of the particle is :
(a) $B / 2 A$
(b) $2 A / B$
(c) $A / B$
(d) $B / A$
