Equipotential lines are lines with equal electric potential (for example, all the points with an electric potential of 5.0 V). Using the plot tool that comes with voltmeter (pencil icon) make two equipotential lines at r = 0.5 m and r = 1.5 m. Enable electric field vectors in the simulation. Put an electric field sensor at different points on the equipotential line and note the direction of the electric field vector. What can you conclude about the direction of the electric field vector in relation to the equipotential lines?

The direction for each field vector is perpendicular to equipotential lines.

Take a snapshot of the simulation showing equipotential lines and paste to a word document.
