Assertion (A): In a region of constant potential, the electric field is zero and there can be no charge inside the region. Reason (R): According to Gauss law. charge inside the region should be zero if electric field is zero.

  1. A Both (A) and (R) are true: (R) is correct explanation of (A)
  2. B Both (A) and (R) are true; (R) is not correct explanation of (A)
  3. C (A) is true, (R) is false
  4. D (A) is false, (R) is true
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Both (A) and (R) are true; (R) is not correct explanation of (A)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For Assertion, Potential difference is given by dV=-E→·dr→, If E→ is zero, the potential will remain constant. For Reason, If in a region electric field is zero, net flux through any closed surface in that region will be zero. Therefore, if electric field…
