We explore the geometry of the electrostatic potential due to two electrical charges. We emphasize that two dimensional contours of these graphics represent equipotential curves and the three-dimensional (3D) contours represent equipotential surfaces. We also examine the geometry of 3D contours of electrostatic potential due to multiple charges in different arrangements. We notice that the geometry of the 3D contours of electrostatic potential is not affected by the polarity of the electric charges.
Nous examinons la géométrie du potentiel électrostatique de deux charges électriques. Nous soulignons le fait que les contours bidimensionnels (2-D) de ces graphiques représentent des courbes équipotentielles et que les contours tridimensionnels (3-D) correspondent aux surfaces équipotentielles. Nous étudions aussi la géométrie des contours 3-D du potentiel électrostatique de charges multiples disposées dans des arrangements différents. Nous remarquons que la géométrie des contours 3-D du potentiel électrostatique n’est pas affectée par la polarité des charges électriques.
Keywords: Electrostatic Interaction; Equipotential Curves; Equipotential Surfaces; Contours of Potential; World Sheet.
