Answer: Electric field is not zero but potential is zero
Explanation:
In science, charge, also recognized as electric charge, electrical charge, or electrostatic charge and expressed q, is a component of a unit of body that reveals the extent to which it has more or fewer electrons than protons.
Considering the direction of the electric field is of positive to negative charge. Therefore, it determination be toward due −q also due to both the charges.
But for potential, it is a scalar quantity, so the sum of potential due to all the charges will be zero.
Henceforth, the option (c) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is the correct answer.
a incorect
From the above statements, we could conclude that option (c) Electric field is not zero, but potential is zero is the correct answer. So, the option (a) Electric field and potential both are zero is an incorrect solution.
b incorect
Among all the options, the option (c) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is the correct answer.
Therefore, the option (b) Electric field is zero but potential is not zero is an incorrect solution
d) is incorrect
It has been explained that the option (c) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is the correct answer.
Hence, the option (d) Electric field is not zero but potential is zero is an incorrect solution.
