NEET Physics Electric Potential MCQ Question
In the diagram shown above, which electric potential condition is true for a uniformly charged spherical shell?
The electric potential inside the shell is zero.
The electric potential outside the shell is proportional to the charge density.
The electric potential is the same at all points inside the shell.
The electric potential outside the shell decreases linearly with distance.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT context states that for a uniformly charged spherical shell, the electric potential inside the shell is constant, as the electric field inside is zero.
