  • Which of the following is correct regarding equipotential surface ?

    A
    Equipotential surfaces can never cross each other otherwise potential at a point will have two values which is absurd
    B
    Equitential surfaces are always perpendicular to lines of force
    C
    If a charge is moved from one point to the other over an equipotential surface, work done will be zero as
    `W_(AB) = - U_(AB) = Q(V_(B) - V_(A) = 0 (as (V_(B) = V_(A))`
    D
    All options are correct

  • Which of the following statements is incorrect regarding equipotential surfaces ?

    A
    Equipotential surfaces are closer in regions of large electric fields compared to regions of lower electric fields.
    B
    Equipotential surfaces will be more crowded near sharp edges of a conductor.
    C
    Equipotential surface will be more crowded near regions of large charge densities
    D
    equipotential surfaces will always be equally spaced.

  • The shape of equipotential surfaces due to an isolated charge is

    A
    Concentric spherical shells and the distance between the shells increases with the decrease in electric field
    B
    Concentric spherical shells and the distance between the shells decreases with the decrease in electric field
    C
    Equi-spaced concentric spherical shells
    D
    Changes with the polarity of the charge
