Question

EQUIPOTENTIAL SURFACE AND ITS PROPERTIES

Answer 1

Properties of Equipotential Surfaces:

1. Work done in moving a test charge over an equipotential surface is zero.
2. Electric field is normal to the equipotential surface.
3. These surfaces helps in distinguishing region of strong field from that of weak field.
4. Equipotential surfaces gives the direction of electric field.
5. These surfaces never cross each other.

Answer 2

Heya......

_____________________________________________________________

QUESTION:- define equipotential surface & its properties

ANSWER:- equipotential surface:- is the surface having some potential at each point.the surface of a conductor in equilibrium is an equipotential surface


ITS PROPERTIES

€. It is a surface of a single point charge are concentric spherical surface centred at the charge

€. For any charge configuration equipotential surface through a point is normal to the electric field at that point

€. For a uniform electric field the equipotential surface are plane
