Understanding Equipotential Surfaces (9:24)
|
In this video, we explore equipotential surfaces and how they connect to electric potential and electric field lines. Using clear visuals and step-by-step reasoning, Mr. P helps you see how electric field lines are always perpendicular to equipotential surfaces, and how the direction of the electric field corresponds to decreasing electric potential. We’ll also look at what happens when a positive and negative charge form an electric dipole and how their equipotential surfaces combine. Perfect for AP® Physics 2 and introductory college physics students wanting to strengthen their understanding of electric potential and electric fields.
