What does the positive and negative sign of potential convey?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The positive sign of potential conveys that work has to be done on the positive test charge against the repulsive force due to the positive charge in bringing it from infinity. The negative sign of potential conveys that work is done on the negative test charge by the attractive force.
