A,BA, B and CC are three points in a uniform electric field. The electric potential is A, B and C are three points in a uniform electric field. The electric potential is

Options

  1. Amaximum at AA
  2. Bmaximum at BB
  3. Cmaximum at C\mathrm{C}
  4. Dsame at all the three points A,BA, B and CC

Correct answer

B. maximum at BB

Step-by-step solution

The electric field maximum at BB, because electric field is directed along decreasing potential VB>VC>VAV_B>V_C>V_A.
