Problem
Consider two identically charged spheres separated by a small distance.
(a) Sketch a diagram to show the electric field lines that define the shape of the electric field between and around the two spheres.
(b) Complete the diagram to show some equipotentials.
(c) How does your diagram help you to identify where the electric field strength is smallest?
