question 15

Multiple Choice

Suppose two charges,one positive and one negative,are separated by a distance d. Where can two equipotential surfaces at different potentials intersect in the region near the charges?

• A)halfway between the charges if the charges have the same magnitude
• B)closer to the smaller negative charge than the larger positive charge if the charges are not equal
• C)Equipotential surfaces at different potentials cannot intersect.
• D)closer to the smaller positive charge than the larger negative charge if the charges are not equal
