This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(a) The electric potential due to point charge q is given by V=q/4? 0r
It means electric potential due to point charge is same for all equidistant points. The locus of these equidistant points, which are at same potential, form spherical surface.

This chapter covers the concepts of potential, capacitors, and potential energy. It is considered as one of the easy chapter of the class 12 Physics.
It is the farad (F). The name came from Michael Faraday. SI Unit of Capacitance means the ability of a system to store an electric charge. One farad is the capacitance of a device that needs one coulomb of charge to provide one volt potential difference across it. Mathematically, it is represented by - 1 Farad = 1 Coulomb/Volt.
