The shape of equipotential surfaces due to an isolated charge is

A) Concentric spherical shells and the distance between the shells increases with the decrease in electric field

B) Concentric spherical shells and the distance between the shells decreases with the decrease in electric field

C) Equi-spaced concentric spherical shells

D) Changes with the polarity of the charge.

Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Option [a] is correct.

Explanation: Concentric spherical shells and the distance between the shells increases with the decrease in electric field. It does not depend on the polarity of the charge.
