Electromagnetism
Q # 1. The potential is constant throughout a given region of space. Is the electric field zero or non zero in this region? Explain.
Ans.
The electric field intensity is described by the relation:
According to the relation, the electric field is negative gradient of electric potential. If the electric
potential is constant throughout given region of space, then change in electric potential , hence .
Q # 2. Suppose that you follow an electric field line due to a positive point charge. Do electric field

Electromagnetism
In 1819, Danish physicist H. C. Ørsted made a groundbreaking discovery while conducting a classroom demonstration. As he passed an electric current through a copper wire connected to a voltaic cell, he noticed that a nearby magnetic needle deflected. This observation led him to the discovery of electromagnetism, a fundamental principle in the field of electricity.
