Discussion
The absolute potential at a point is conventionally referred to
Answer: B
Correct answer: infinity, where the potential is taken as zero
Only differences in potential have physical meaning, so a reference must be chosen. Infinity is the natural choice for an isolated charge distribution, since the field vanishes there. In circuit work the earth or a chassis is used instead, and the choice is a convention rather than a fact about nature.
