    When a negative charge is taken at a height from earth's surface, then its potential energy                          [DPMT 2002]

    A)                    Decreases                     

    B)            Increases

    C)                    Remains unchanged 

    D)            Will become infinity

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                 It is assumed that charge on earth is \[{{10}^{6}}C\] hence by taking away a negative charge from the earth, potential energy will increase.
