  1. Making Clear Justifications Consider the equipotential curves in the plane of two equal charges. Explain in a sentence or two why each of the statements below is true.
    • Very close to either one of the charges, the equipotential curves are approximately circular.
    • Very close to either one of the charges, the equipotential curves get closer together as you get closer to the charge.
    • Very far from both charges, the equipotential curves are approximately circular.
    • In the intermediate region where there are still distinct equipotential curves around each charge, the equipotential curves are closer together on the side away from the other charge.
