Current Electricity

Question:

Consider the two statements:

Statement 1 : Charge will flow from one body to another body even when there is no potential difference between them.

Statement 2 : Electric potential is the amount of work done, when one unit electric charge moves from one point to another point in an electric circuit.

Options:

Both 1 and 2 are true, 2 is not a correct explanation of 1

Both 1 and 2 are true, 2 is the correct explanation of 1

1 is true and 2 is false

2 is true and 1 is false

Correct Answer:

2 is true and 1 is false

Explanation:

If two bodies are at same potential, no charge will flow from one body to another and electric potential is the work done per unit charge.
