What is the potential difference between xi=10cm and xf=30cm in the uniform electric field Ex=2000V/m? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Respuesta :

Answer:

∆V= -400 Volts

Explanation:

xi= 10 cm= 0.1 m

xf= 30 cm = 0.3 m

E= 2000 V/m

We have the equation

∆V=-E (∆d)= E (xf -xi)

∆V=-2000V/m (0.3 -0.1)m

∆V= -400 Volts

The potential difference is [tex]-400V/m[/tex]

Potential difference :

The potential difference is given as,

                         [tex]\Delta V=-E( x_{f}-x_{i})[/tex]

Where E is electric field , [tex]x_{f}[/tex] and [tex]x_{i}[/tex] are final and initial position.

Given that, [tex]E=2000V/m,x_{f}=30cm=0.3m,x_{i}=10cm=0.1m[/tex]

Substitute values in above relation.

               [tex]\Delta V=-2000( 0.3-0.1)\\\\\Delta V=-2000*0.2=-400V/m[/tex]
