<img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Solution" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/p-ahuwhs51apjaljev.jpg" /> Electric potential due to point charge is given by the formula V=(k q/r) As, all the points on equipotental surface will be equidistance from the charge. Hence, it is spherical symmetry.

Q. Nature of equipotential surface for a point charge is

ellipsoid with charge at foci

sphere with charge at the centre of the sphere

sphere with charge on the surface of the sphere

plane with charge on the surface

Electric potential due to point charge is given by the formula
$V = \frac{k q}{r}$
As, all the points on equipotental surface will be equidistance from the charge.
Hence, it is spherical symmetry.
