Physics20251 markAssertion-reason

Assertion: The electric field strength is greatest at point A and reduces from A to E.

Reason: The potential difference in a region of space is equal to the negative electric field gradient in that region.

The diagram below shows the equipotential surfaces in a given region of space. The potential difference between any two consecutive surfaces is equal. There are five points marked in the space, namely A, B, C, D, and E as shown.
  • (a)Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • (b)Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
  • (c)Assertion is true, and Reason is false.
  • (d)Both Assertion and Reason are false.
