Question

The figure below shows a region of space in which there is a constant electric field E = 600 V/m to the left (the charges creating the field are not shown). There are five labeled points in this region arranged on a grid the grid spacing is 0.02 m. Rank the points based on their voltage. Ties are possible. Use the symbols > and = to indicate your ranking, listing any that are equal in alphabetical order, For example, if Y and Z are the same and are both greater than x, then your would enter Y = Z > X

Explanation / Answer

we know when we go in the direction of electric field elctric potential decreases.

so,

vE > VC = VD > VA = VB

=============================

we know,

VE - VA = E*d

VE - VA = 600*2*0.02

VE - VA = 24 volts

VE = 24 + VA

= 24 + (-5)

= 19 volts
