Four chrages `2C, -3C, -4C` and `5C` respectively are placed at all the corners of a square. Which of the following statements is true for the point of intersection of the diagonals ?

A

Electric fields is zero but electric potential is non-zero

B

Electric fields is non-zero but electric potential is zero

C

Both electirc field and electirc potential is zero

D

Neither electric fields nor electric potential is zero.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`V = 9 xx 10^(9) [(2)/(r ) -(3)/(r ) - (4)/(r ) - (5)/(r )] = 0`
Electric fields due to all the charges shell not cancel out because of different direction.
