Answer:

b. Constant magnitude, but varying direction, perpendicular to the equipotential.

Explanation:

As we know that the relation between electric field and electric potential is given as

\Delta E = -\frac{dV}{dr}

here if we say that potential is constant because electric field sensor is moving along equi-potential line.

Then we will say

V = constant

so we have

\Delta E = 0

so electric field will remain constant always in magnitude and always remains perpendicular to the surface

so we have

b. Constant magnitude, but varying direction, perpendicular to the equipotential.

<span>In order best to find out whether the obtained experimental results are worth mor etime and resources the group of scientists should present their results (could be done also in poster session) to other scientists in order to hear their opinion and get a feedback. The shoudl also ask another researchers to redo the experiments and to compare the results. </span>
