The electric field 
between two points is constant in both magnitude and direction. Consider a path of length 
at an angle 
with respect to field lines shown in the figure. The potential difference between points 1 and 2 is
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Points 2 and 3 are equipotential points. Hence, potential difference between points 1 and 2 is the same as that between 1 and 3.
