Question

are equipotential surfaces equidistant from each other? if not, why?

Open in App
Solution

Dear student

The equipotential surface about a single charge is not equidistant because potential V is inversaly ptoportional to r.
Also electric field due to single charge is not constant.

This is the reason why the equipotential surfaces about a single charge are not equidistant.
