12th Class Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Electric Potential and Capacitance

  • question_answer
    ASSERTION: Conductors having equal positive charge and volume must also have same potential.
    REASON: Potential depends only on charge and volume of conductor.

    A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

    B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

    C) If assertion is true but reason is false.

    D) If both assertion and reason are false.

    E) If assertion is false but reason is true.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Electric potential of a charged conductor depends not only on the amount of charge and volume but also on the shape of the conductor. Hence if their shapes are different, they may have a different electric potential.
