I have two questions about electric field and equipotential surface. Here is first one:
For an arrangement of two point charges,
--Is it possible to find two points (neither at infinity) where E = 0 ?
Secondly,
--Is it possible for two or more different equipotential surfaces to intersect?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
the first question's answer is yes, it is possible.
 
Could you explain further, please? To understand it, "yes" is not sufficient.
 
Oh I am really sorry, I was just trying to help. See i am not a homework helper, i am just a regular student so I am not really sure why that is the answer either, but my teacher taught this to us and said that there can be two points where E= 0. but you should continue asking homework helpers for help. they can really explain things to you better and answer the question "why". haha I am sorry I am not much of a help.
