Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance - Result Question 6

7. $A, B$ and $C$ are three points in a uniform electric field. The electric potential is

[2013]

(a) maximumat $B$

(b) maximumat $C$

(c) same at all the three points $A, B$ and $C$

(d) maximumat $A$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 7. (a)

Solution:

  1. (a) Potential at $B, V_B$ is maximum

$ V_B>V_C>V_A $

As in the direction of electric field potential decreases.
