Three equal charges are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle. Which of the graphs below correctly depicts the equally-spaced equipotential surfaces in the plane of the triangle? (All graphs have the same scale.)
What is an equipotential surface ? Draw an equipotential surfaces for a
$(1)$ single point charge
$(2)$ charge $+ \mathrm{q}$ and $- \mathrm{q}$ at few distance (dipole)
$(3)$ two $+ \mathrm{q}$ charges at few distance
$(4)$ uniform electric field.
Thepoints resembling equal potentials are
Draw an equipotential surface of two identical positive charges for small distance.
Assertion $(A):$ A spherical equipotential surface is not possible for a point charge.
Reason $(R):$ A spherical equipotential surface is possible inside a spherical capacitor.
Assertion : Two equipotential surfaces cannot cut each other.
Reason : Two equipotential surfaces are parallel to each other.
