Q. Which of the following about potential difference between any two points is true?
I. It depends only on the initial and final position.
II. It is the work done per unit positive charge in moving from one point to other.
III. It is more for a positive charge of two units as compared to a positive charge of one unit.
IV. It depends on the path between two points.

Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance

Solution:

Since $V=\frac{W}{Q}$, more work will be done for a positive charge of two units as compared to positive charge of one unit, but the ratio $\frac{ W }{ Q }$ is same. Therefore potential difference is same.
