Question
If a positive charge is released from rest, it moves in the direction of
- Lower electric potential
- Higher electric potential
- Will not move
- Incomplete information
Hint:
In the direction of electric field (from higher potential to lower potential)
The correct answer is: Lower electric potential
- A positive charge moves in the direction of the electric field.
- It moves from the higher electric potential to the lower electric potential.
- So, the correct option is b.
