NEET Physics Electric Potential MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-fact-Medium-Class 12
What is the electrostatic potential at a point E when the potentials due to charges A, B, C, and D cancel each other out?
A
Zero
B
Positive
C
Negative
D
Undefined
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The electrostatic potential at point E is zero because the potentials due to charges A and C cancel those due to charges B and D, resulting in no net potential. This is directly stated in the context provided.
