Abstract

This essay’s aim is to observe the electric field lines between two parallel ring conductors by drawing the equipotential lines of the conductor via voltmeter. The experiment is done by using a silver pen for creating the conductor. On a carbon sheet two circles which have the same centre but different radius are drawn with silver pen. The equipotential lines between these circles are drawn and the electric field lines are drawn according to equipotential lines. The method is easy to apply. In this experiment, as much data as possible must be collected, because the deviations can be unexpectedly high. So to find the approximate result, the number of data must be very high. Using 4 different voltage values (40V, 30V, 20V, 10V) about 600 data is collected. The test results show that except some data the values are mostly close to each other. That means proper equipotential lines are drawn. Since the electric field lines are drawn according to equipotential lines, the electric field lines could be drawn. The field lines drawn are almost perfectly same with the theoric field lines between two parallel rings.
