Physics-Potential Difference

NEET Physics Potential Difference MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-fact-Medium-Class 12

What is the relationship between potential difference (V) and electric field (E) in the context of a parallel-plate capacitor?

A

V is directly proportional to E and the distance between plates.

B

V is inversely proportional to E and the distance between plates.

C

V is independent of the electric field and only depends on charge.

D

V is proportional to the square of the electric field.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The potential difference V across a parallel-plate capacitor is given by the relationship V = E * d, indicating that V is directly proportional to the electric field E and the distance d between the plates.
