Electrostatic Potential And Capacitance Ques 3

3. In a certain region of space with volume $0.2$ $m^{3}$, the electric potential is found to be $5$ $ V$ throughout. The magnitude of electric field in this region is :

[2020]

(a) $0.5$ $ N / C$

(b) $1$ $ N / C$

(c) $5$ $ N / C$

(d) zero

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 3.(d)

Solution:

  1. (d) Since, electric potential is constant throughout the volume, hence electric field,

$E=-\frac{d V}{d r}=0$.
