IMPORTANT

Assertion: An electrostatic field represent as

E=Exi^+Eyj^+Ezk^ satisfies ×E=0

Reason: Ex, Ey, Ez are independent of each other.

IMPORTANT

Assertion: Heart can be considered as dipole.

Reason: Electric flux and electric field are same as dipole.

EASY
NEET
IMPORTANT

Assertion: Electric flux density is independent of medium.

Reason: It depends only on distance and charge.

IMPORTANT

Assertion: For a charged shell, potential inside shell depends only on the field inside shell.

Reason: Potential of shell may be determined only by the field outside.
