NEET Physics Electric Potential MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-fact-Medium-Class 12

What is the formula for the electric potential V at a point P due to two point charges q1 and q2?

A

V = (q1/r1 + q2/r2) / (4πε0)

B

V = (q1 + q2) / (4πε0r)

C

V = (q1/r1 + q2/r2) * (4πε0)

D

V = (q1 + q2) * (4πε0r)

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The correct formula is V = (q1/r1 + q2/r2) / (4πε0) as per equation (2.24) in the NCERT context, which describes the potential at any point due to multiple charges.
