$A$ point charge $q$ is held at the centre of a circle of radius $r$. $B$ and $C$ are two points on the circumference of the circle,and $A$ is a point outside the circle. If $W_{AB}$ represents the work done by the electric field in taking a charge $q_0$ from $A$ to $B$,and $W_{AC}$ represents the work done from $A$ to $C$,then:

Calculate the electric potential on the axis of a ring of radius $R$ due to a charge $Q$ uniformly distributed along it.
