Answer:
the correct one is 2. the equipotential lines must be closer together where the field has more intensity
Explanation:
The equipotential line concept is a line or surface where a test charge can move without doing work, therefore the potential in this line is constant and they are perpendicular to the electric field lines.
In this exercise we have a charge and a series of equipotential lines, if this is a point charge the lines are circles around the charge, where the potential is given by
V = k q / r
also the electric field and the electuary potential are related
E =
therefore the equipotential lines must be closer together where the field has more intensity
