Assertion:- Charge given to a conductor appears on its surface.
Reason:- When charge appears on surface then potential energy of conductor becomes minimum.
Reason:- When charge appears on surface then potential energy of conductor becomes minimum.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion
Option A (If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion) is correct because charges on a conductor reside on its surface to minimize potential energy, leading to a stable electrostatic configuration.

Assertion:- Electric field lines do not cut at any point.
Reason:- At any point, there is only one direction of electric field. Statement-I: A positive point charge is brought in an electric field, the electric field at neary by point will increase
Statement-II: Electric field produced by charge may favour the existing electric filed Two particles having equal mass and charge
are separated by a distance The force(s) they
experience is (are) Statement-I: No 2 electric lines of force can intersect each other
Statement-II: tangent at any point of electric line of force gives the direction of electric field A force of is acting between two charges in air if the space between them is completely filled with glass , then the new force will be …… An electron is placed at centre of a conducting sphere of radius 0.2 metre having charge coulomb. The force of on the electron is ________ N
