Q. The electric field intensity at all points in space is given by volts/metre. The nature of equipotential lines in -y plane is given by

 951  175 Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance Report Error

Solution:

The direction of uniform electric field in -plane is as shown in Figure
image
The equipotential lines will be perpendicular to electric field. Also electric field points from high potential region towards low potential region. Therefore nature of equipotential lines in plane is given by Figure
