Physics-Electric Potential

NEET Physics Electric Potential Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Hard-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Electrostatic potential (V) (i) Work done per unit test charge (b) Potential energy (U) (ii) Positive for like charges (c) Work done (W) (iii) Path-independence in conservative forces (d) Charge brought from infinity (iv) Work done on a charge without acceleration

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv

B

a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii

C

a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv

D

a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Electrostatic potential (V) is defined as the work done per unit test charge in bringing a charge from infinity to a point. Potential energy (U) is positive for like charges due to repulsive forces. The work done (W) is independent of the path taken, consistent with conservative forces. Finally, bringing a charge from infinity involves work done without acceleration.
