A potential field is shown by its equipotential surfaces. At point P, the electric field E is

Moderate

A

Parallel to the equipotential surface passing through that point.
B

Parallel to the more positive equipotential surface.
C

Normal to the equipotential surface passing through that point and is directed towards equipotential surface of higher potential .
D

Normal to the equipotential surface passing through that point and is directed towards equipotential surface of lower potential .

Solution

Electric field is always normal to equipotential surface and directed from higher to lower potential .
