Q17 of 33 Page 13

Can the potential function have a maximum or minimum in free space?

No, the potential function does not have a maximum or minimum in free space, it is because the absence of atmosphere around conductor prevent the phenomenon of electric discharge or potential leakage

Do free electrons travel to region of higher potential or lower potential?

16

Can there be a potential difference between two adjacent conductors carrying the same charge?

18

A test charge q is made to move in the electric field of a point charge Q along two different closed paths (Fig. 2.6). First path has sections along and perpendicular to lines of electric field. Second path is a rectangular loop of the same area as the first loop. How does the work do compare in the two cases?

Prove that a closed equipotential surface with no charge within itself must enclose an equipotential volume.
