Question

Write two properties of equipotential surface depict

Answer 1

1. magnetic field vector must be perpendicular to the area vector.
2. work done in moving a changed particle from one pt. to another pt. must be zero.
∆w=q.∆v
∆v=0 therefore
∆w=0

Answer 2

Answer:

The two properties of equipotential surface are:

• No work is done in moving a charge between any two points on an equipotential surface. This is so because the potential difference between any two points on the surface is zero.

• The electric field, and hence lies of force, are everywhere at right angles to the equipotential surface. This is so because there is no potential gradient along any direction parallel to the surface and no electric field parallel to the surface.
