Question

True or false:

(a) If the electric field is zero in some region of space, the electric potential must also be zero in that region.

(b) If the electric potential is zero in some region of space, the electric field must also be zero in that region.

(c) If the electric potential is zero at a point, the electric field must also be zero at that point.

(d) Electric field lines always point toward regions of lower potential.

(e) The value of the electric potential can be chosen to be zero at any convenient point.

(f) In electrostatics, the surface of a conductor is an equipotential surface.
