Question
1. The potential difference from a point A to a point B in a uniform electric field is positive if
a)Actually, the potential difference will be zero.
b)The electric field vectors point in the direction from B to A
c)The electric field vectors point perpendicular to the direction from A to B.
d)None of the above.
2. What does it mean if a conductor is in ``electrostatic equilibrium''?
a) the charges in the conductor are moving in response to an electric field
b) the conductor is at rest
c) the charges in the conductor are not moving
d) none of the above
