Figure shows three points A, B and C in a region of uniform electric field 
. The line AB is perpendicular and BC is parallel to the field lines. Then which of the following holds good. Where 
and 
represent the electric potential at points A, B and C respectively
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Electric lines of force in an electric field always flow from a higher potential to a lower potential.
