NEET Physics Electric Potential Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Electrostatic potential at a point (i) Work done per unit test charge (b) Work done in bringing a charge from infinity (ii) Always positive (c) Potential energy of a charge in an external field (iii) Depends on the configuration of the charges (d) Potential due to multiple charges (iv) Zero at points of cancellation
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The electrostatic potential at a point is defined as the work done per unit test charge to bring it from infinity to that point (i). The work done in bringing a charge from infinity is related to the potential of that point (ii). The potential energy in an external field depends on the arrangement of charges (iii), and the potential due to multiple charges can be zero at points where their effects cancel each other out (iv).
