NEET Physics Electric Potential MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

What is the magnitude of the electric field between two closely spaced equipotential surfaces A and B, if the potential difference between them is 10 V and the distance is 0.5 m?

A

20 V/m

B

5 V/m

C

10 V/m

D

15 V/m

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using the relation |E| = -ΔV/Δl, the electric field magnitude is |E| = 10/0.5 = 20 V/m. This is derived from the relationship between field and potential.
