WHAT ARE THE PROPERTIES OF EQUIPOTENTIAL SURFACES ?????????
Hi Sidra,
Siddhant has given exactly correct answer. Hope, you have got it.
Just want to put answer in compact form
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.
Hope this helps,
Good luck.
