Assertion (A): Positive charge always moves from a higher potential point to a lower potential point. 
Reason (R): Electric potential is a vector quantity.
  • A
    Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
  • B
    Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  • C
    A is true but R is false.
  • D
    A is false but R is true.
Answer
(c) A is true but R is false.
Explanation: If two points P and Q in an electric field are separated by an infinitesimal distance $\Delta x$ and have a potential difference $\Delta V$
between them, $E =\frac{-\Delta V}{\Delta x}$. Here, negative sign implies that $\vec{E}$ has got a direction opposite to the potential gradient, i , e, in the
direction of $\vec{E}$, the potential decreases, i. e, positive charge always moves from a higher potential point to a lower potential point.

MCQ 41 Mark
Assertion (A): The photoelectrons produced by a monochromatic light beam incident on a metal surface have a spread in their kinetic energies.
Reason (R): The energy of electrons emitted from inside the metal surface, is lost in collision with the other atoms in the metal.
  • A
    Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  • B
    Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  • C
    A is true but R is false.
  • D
    A is false but R is true.
Answer
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation: Photoelectrons produced by monochromatic light have different velocities and hence different energies. Actually all the electrons do not occupy the same level of energy. So, electrons coming out from different levels have different velocities and hence different energies. So, the assertion is true. The electrons coming out from inside the metal surface, face collisions with the other atoms in the metal. So, energies become different. Hence the reason is true and it explains the assertion.
