Question

A group of students trace out two equipotential surfaces and an electric field line as shown in figure 1.4-1.

831E1285-DE57-4D33-BB06-14CACB0A501D.jpegA) Identify the polarity of each terminal

B) calculate the electric field for each segment of the electric field line given that the distance between the two digital multi-meter probe tips is 2.0*10^-2 m. 

C) Determine the potential difference between the two equipotential lines by summing the voltages along the electric field line. Compare this value to the potential difference found by subtracting the voltage of the two equipotential lines.

    Two parallel plates Equipotential Lines represent for us on a graph the same thing Elevation Lines do for us on a map: They represent a line where the Electric or Gravitational potential is a constant. Maps and voltage graphs have even spacing between values (1V or 500ft or 100m etc)so they can be read easier. These potentials were at 3V, 6V, 9V, 12V, and 15V. In the figure are 5 lines of electric potential drawn from positive charge at left...
