JEE Main 8 April 2025, Shift 2, Physics Q35

Question 35 of 75 in this shift, Physics question 10 of 25, Section A.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R Assertion 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
  1. (1)Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of AOfficial answer
  2. (2)Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
  3. (3)A is true but R is false
  4. (4)A is false but R is true
