$$A,B$$ and $$C$$ are three points in a uniform electric field. The electric potential is
Electric Potential mcq question image

A. maximum at $$B$$

B. maximum at $$C$$

C. same at all the three points $$A,B$$ and $$C$$

D. maximum at $$A$$

Answer : maximum at $$B$$

Solution :
Potential at $$B,{V_B}$$ is maximum
$${V_B} > {V_C} > {V_A}$$
As in the direction of electric field potential decreases.
