NEET Physics Potential Difference Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): When a charge moves through a potential difference, it gains or loses energy. | Reason (R): The work done in moving a charge between two points is equal to the charge multiplied by the potential difference between those points.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, the work done in moving a charge q from one point to another is q times the potential difference, which translates to the energy gained or lost by the charge.
