Question

In the system of parallel electric field plates  shown as Figure 3 of the manual for Lab 2 - Electric  Field Plotting, the origin (0,0) is at the lower left-hand  corner of the figure, the "x" axis goes from 0 to 16  and the "y" axis goes from 0 to 12. Consider  the region for x between 0 to 16 and y from  2 to 10. In the list below click the box next to  any answer that is true. Check all that are true.


a)all electric field lines are straight in the whole region

b)all electric field lines are perpendicular to the equipotential lines everywhere they cross

c)all electric field lines are parallel to all equipotential lines in the region

d)all equipotential lines are straight in the whole region

e)some electric field lines are not straight in the whole region

f)some equipotential lines are straight in the whole region
