The correct answer is: $50 \mu \mathrm{J}$
Key Idea Potential drop is zero along an ideal conductor because it has zero resistance.
Potential at point $\mathrm{A}=10 \mathrm{~V}$
Potential at point $\mathrm{B}=0 \mathrm{~V}$
$\therefore$ Potential difference across $\mathrm{AB}=10 \mathrm{~V}$

$\begin{aligned} \text { Heat produced } & =\text { Energy stored }=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{CV}^2 \\ & =\frac{1}{2} \times 10^{-6} \times(10)^2=50 \mu \mathrm{J}\end{aligned}$
