Question

If VA and VB are electric potentials at points A and B in given dig. then :-
  

Options

A.VA = VB
B.VA > VB
C.VA < VB
D.None of these

Solution

Field lines are converging so they are moving towards the charge. 
Potential is maximum at Infinity as field lines travels from higher potential to lower potential.
