NEET Physics Electric Potential Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Electric potential at a point | (i) Work done against electric field |
| (b) Potential energy of a charge | (ii) Unit positive charge brought from infinity |
| (c) Equipotential surface | (iii) No work done when moving |
| (d) Work done on a negative charge | (iv) Negative potential energy |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The electric potential at a point is defined as the work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to that point (NCERT context). An equipotential surface is one where no work is done when moving a charge along it, and the potential energy for a charge can be positive or negative depending on the charge's nature and position in the electric field.
