Assertion: the potential of an infinite line charge cannot be referred to infinity. Reason: the field of such a line falls as the inverse first power of distance.
Answer: D
Integrating an inverse first power field gives a logarithm, which grows without bound, so infinity cannot serve as a reference. Had the field fallen as the inverse square the integral would have converged, as it does for a point charge.
