STATEMENT-1
For practical purposes, the earth is used as a reference at zero potential in electrical circuits.
and
STATEMENT-2
The electrical potential of a sphere of radius $R$ with charges $Q$ uniformly distributed on the surface is given by $\frac{\mathrm{Q}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0 \mathrm{R}}$.
Select the correct option:
A
STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1
B
STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1
C
STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False
D
STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Both the statements are true,& statement (II) is not the correct explanation of statement (I). Because, whatever be the value of potential we can assign it zero as a reference.
