Equipotential surfaces a) are closer in regions of large electric fields compared to regions of lower electric fields b) will be more crowded near sharp edges of a conductor c) will be more crowded near regions of large charge densities d) will always be equally spaced
Correct option is D) Electric field E=−drdVordr∝E1 i.e., equipotential surfaces are closer in regions of large electric fields compared to regions of lower electric field. At sharp edges of a conductor, charge density is more. Therefore electric field is stronger. Hence equipotential surfaces are more crowded
