Physics · Electrostatic Potential
हिन्दीConsider the following statements regarding electrostatic potential: (A) Electrostatic potential at a point is numerically equal to the work done in bringing a unit positive test charge from infinity to that point. (B) The SI unit of electrostatic potential is Volt. (C) Potential is a scalar quantity. (D) Potential inside a charged hollow spherical conductor is zero everywhere. Which of the above statements are correct?
Correct answer · Option 2
(A), (B) and (C) only
Explanation
Statements (A), (B), and (C) are correct definitions and properties. Statement (D) is incorrect because potential inside a charged hollow conductor is constant and non-zero (equal to surface potential).
