Usage: physics

1. a surface or line along which the electric potential is constant
Usage: physics

Examples

• The metal sphere forms an equipotential surface.
• All points on an equipotential line have the same voltage.
• The physicist mapped the equipotential curves around the charged particle.
• Equipotential surfaces are always perpendicular to electric field lines.
• The conductor maintains an equipotential condition throughout its volume.
• Students drew equipotentials to visualize the electric field pattern.
