Doesn't seem like they can. If they could, then that would put

two different potentials along the intersection.

Can two different equipotential surfaces intersect give a reason for your answer?

No, two equipotential surfaces cannot intersect. These are surfaces where the gradient of potential is zero always.


Can two different equipotential lines cross each other?

No, two different equipotential lines cannot cross each other. Equipotential lines are points in a space at which the electric potential has the same value. If two equipotential lines were to cross, it would mean that the electric potential at that point has two different values, which is not possible according to the definition of equipotential lines.


Is it that if two different circles intersect then they intersect at one and only one point?

If two circles intersect then they have to intersect at two points.


What is the amount of work done in moving a 100nc charge between two points 5 cm apart on an equipotential surface?

An equipotential surface has the same value of potential. Thus, work done would be zero. Work done = Charge X Potential difference


Can two isobars drawn on a surface weather map ever intersect?

No, isobars represent areas of equal atmospheric pressure, so two isobars should never intersect on a surface weather map. If two isobars were to intersect, it would imply that the same location on the map has two different atmospheric pressure values simultaneously, which is not physically possible.


Do two lines always intersect at one point?

If two different lines intersect, they will always intersect at one point.


When two lines intersect do they intersect in different ponts?

No, two straight lines can intersect at only one point and that is their point of intersection.


What is the work done in moving a charge of 10 nC between two points on an equipotent surface?

The work done in moving a charge on an equipotent surface is zero. This is because the potential is constant along equipotential surfaces, so there is no change in potential energy as the charge moves between points on the surface. Therefore, the work done is zero.


When a curved surface is tangent to a plane surface?

When the two surfaces touch but do not intersect one another.


What is the relationship between two cylinders when they intersect?

When two cylinders intersect, they share a common curved surface where they meet. The relationship between the two cylinders is that they intersect at a specific point or points, creating a shared boundary between them.


What are lines that are not coplanar and do not intersect?

Two lines that are not coplaner exist on two different planes. These lines do not and will not intersect by simple definition. It is however, when speaking of three or more lines, when the possibility that two or more of them may intersect.


What is Equipotential lines in electric field?

Equipotential lines in an electric field are imaginary lines that connect points having the same electric potential. Along these lines, no work is required to move a charge between the points, as the electric potential is the same. Equipotential lines are always perpendicular to electric field lines.
