Equipotential Lines of Two Wires (The image is shown below)

Question (1): In the choices, which of the statements is TRUE if a positive test charge (+q) is placed between B and C?

Choices for question 1:

= +q will move towards Y

= +q will move towards X

= +q will move towards and along B

= +q will move towards and along C
 
= +q will not move
 

Question (2): In the choices, which of these is not done in mapping the equipotential lines?

Choices for question 2:

A. The fixed electrodes are connected to the power supply.
B. The potential difference between fixed electrodes was varied.
C. The copper sulfate solution was poured into the pan until the solution thinly covers the entire area of the pan.
D. The equipotential points were located by moving the moving electrode through the solution until a point is found for which zero reading in the voltmeter is observed.
