Answer True or Flase1-Electric potential due to a uniform E field doesn’t change with location.2-The equipotential surfaces associated with a uniform E field consist of a family of planes that are perpendicular to the E field.3-The electric potential difference between two locations can exist when there is only a source charge. Even when there is no TEST charge q, the potential difference can exist between two points in the space.

Answer:

1. False

2. True

3. True

Explanation:

1- False —> The relation between electric potential and electric field is given such that

[tex]-\int\limits^a_b \vec{E}d\vec{l} = V_{ab}[/tex]

Therefore, for a uniform E field, electric potential is linearly proportional to the distance.

2- True —> The electric field lines always cross the equipotential lines perpendicularly.

3- True —> In order to be a potential difference, one source of electric field is enough. The electric potential will decrease radially according to the following formula:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q}{r^2}[/tex]

There is no test charge in the formula, only the source charge. Even when there is no test charge, the potential difference between points in space can exist.
