| Statement I: | Work done by electrostatic force is zero if a charge is moving along an equipotential surface. |
| Statement II: | Equipotential surfaces are perpendicular to the electric field. |
| 1. | Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect. |
| 2. | Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct. |
| 3. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect. |
| 4. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct. |
The work done to move a charge along an equipotential from \(A\) to point \(B:\)
1. cannot be defined as \(-\int_A^B E.dl\)
2. must be defined as \(-\int_A^BE.dl\)
3. is zero
4. can have a non-zero value
Identify the incorrect statement from the following:
| 1. | The equipotential surface created by a single-point charge is spherical. |
| 2. | Equipotential surfaces can also be constructed for a dipole. |
| 3. | Equipotential surfaces are always perpendicular to electric field lines. |
| 4. | The work done in moving a test charge along an equipotential surface is positive. |
| Assertion (A): | Work done in moving a charge along the equatorial line of an electric dipole from the centre of the dipole through a distance equal to the length of the dipole is zero. |
| Reason (R): | The Equatorial line of the electric dipole lies on the equipotential surface. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
