Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason RAssertion A : Work done in moving a test charge between two points inside a uniformly charged spherical shell is zero, no matter which path is chosen.Reason R : Electrostatic potential inside a uniformly charged spherical shell is constant and is same as that on the surface of the shell.In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Official answer
From NTA’s final answer key for this paper.
(1)
Both $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$ and $\displaystyle \mathbf{R}$ are true and $\displaystyle \mathbf{R}$ is the correct explanation of $\displaystyle \mathbf{A}$
