In a region of constant potential

Question

In a region of constant potential (A) The electric field is uniform and nonzero (B) The electric field is infinity (C) There can be no charge inside the region (D) None of the above

Potential is constant. Hence, E=-(d V/d r) E=0 [∴ as V arrow constant] If there is a charge, there will be an electric field associated with it.

Q. In a region of constant potential

The electric field is uniform and nonzero

The electric field is infinity

There can be no charge inside the region

None of the above

Potential is constant.
Hence, $E = - \frac{d V}{d r}$
$E = 0$ [ $∴$ as $V \to$ constant]
If there is a charge, there will be an electric field associated with it.
