Equipotential Surfaces

Chapter-2|Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance| NCERT 12th Physics: Equipotential Surfaces: Any surface which has same electrostatic potential at every point on it is called an equipotential surface. From above it is clear that V is constant if r is constant. If all the points at same potential is the electric field are joined, then an equipotential
