No. If two equipotential surfaces intersect, then there would be two values of electric potential at the point of intersection, which is not possible.

Can electric field lines cross?
Lines of force don't exist. They can't cross each other because they aren't there. The common (related) demonstration of magnetic lines of force using iron filings works because of the fact that the iron filings become little magnets and line up head to tail. If you photograph them and re-run the experiment you will see that the lines are different, which shows that they are an "artifact" of the magnetic field. No actual lines exist.
Magnectic field lines of force will not go through?
Magnetic lines do not cross each other. it is natural phenomenon.AnswerMagnetic 'lines of force' do not actually exist. They simply represent a 'model' which is used to explain the behaviour of a magnetic field through the use of something we can easily understand. In this case, one of the conditions for this model to apply is that these imaginary lines of force cannot intersect.The lines do not cross because the field can not have two values at one point. There is a basic equation that says that the lines always form closed loops:div B = 0, one of Maxwell's equations describing a property of the magnetic flux density B.
Why don't all the lights go out when a bulb blows in the house?
each buld has different parrel lines so on i on bulb isn't working the other bulb will be effected because it have different parrell to the swich.b thank i am going to kill you james leglat because you suck.
Which of the following shows perpendicular lines W. X. Y. Z.?
None of them because perpendicular lines intercept each other at right angles
What is differences between parallelism and perpendicularity?
parallell lines will never touch each other (if they went on forever) perpendicular lines touch each other at a 90° angle (one straight up; one straight across
Is it possible for equipotential lines to cross?
Equipotentials cannot cross because they relate to places with a given value for potential. Lines of force meet at the charge or point of mass. They can cross if they relate to the same potential. Think of two mountain chains of unvarying height crossing each-other.
Will two lines with different y intercept cross each other?
They will, if they have different slopes.
What are Lines that cross each other?
intersecting lines...
Is it true that two lines with different slopes are perpendicular?
No. Only lines that intersect at 90 degree angles are perpendicular. Any other lines that cross each other are simply intersecting lines.
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines alike How are they different?
They are alike because they both cross each other. They are different because perpendicular lines have to be a right angle while intersecting lines can be any kind of angle.
What are lines that cross called?
Lines that cross each other are called intersecting lines.
What are intersecting lines are lines that cross each other?
Yes, well the don't have to cross they can just run into each other
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines are different?
Perpendicular lines are a specific kind of intersecting lines. Intersecting lines are any two lines that cross through each other. Depending on how they cross each other, they may make angles from 170 degrees to 1 degree. Perpendicular lines are specifically two straight lines that cross each other at right angles, so that they create angles that are 90 degrees.
What is intersecting lines are lines that cross each other?
Yes.
What are 2 lines that cross each other?
intersecting lines
When you cross two number lines that are perpendicular?
Perpendicular lines cross each other at right angles
What are two lines that cross at a 90 degrees angle called?
Lines that cross each other at 90 degrees are perpendicular lines.
