Equipotential surfaces

Question

Two equipotential surface can never
(a) intersect each other
(b) touch each other

Easy

A

only (a) is correct
B

only (b) is correct
C

both (a) and (b) are correct
D

none of these

Two equipotential lines can not intersect each other because there will be two directions of the electric field at that point which is practically impossible. And the lines can not touch other also because then there will two different values of potential on a single line.
