Q2.If a positive charge moves in the direction of the electric field
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
A positive charge experiences a force in the direction of the field. If it moves in the direction of the field, positive work is done by the electric field on the charge. Potential energy of the charge increases only when an external source does work on the charge against the direction of the field- eg: when the charge is moved against the direction of the field
Q9.It is observed in a potentiometer experiment that no current passes through the galvanometer, when the terminals of the cell are connected across a certain length of the potentiometer wire. On shunting the cell by a 2 Ω resistance, the balancing length is reduced to half. The internal resistance of the cell is
