$A$ charge $(-q)$ and another charge $(+Q)$ are kept at two points $A$ and $B$ respectively. Keeping the charge $(+Q)$ fixed at $B$,the charge $(-q)$ at $A$ is moved to another point $C$ such that $ABC$ forms an equilateral triangle of side $l$. The net work done in moving the charge $(-q)$ is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{Qq}{l}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{Qq}{l^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{4\pi \varepsilon_0} Qql$
  • D
    Zero
