Question

A uniform electric field E = - 1000 N/C i is shown in the figure below. The value for L = 1.0 cm. L What is the difference in electric potential, Delta V = V_B - V_A, between points A and B? What is the difference in electric potential, Delta V = V_B - Vg, between points C and B? What is the difference in electric potential, Delta V = V_C - V_A, between points C and A? While we only explored differences in voltage above, also contemplate: What voltage value(s) could you assign to point A? Does convention help narrow it down?

Explanation / Answer

(a)
Vb - Va = 0

(b)
Vc - Vb = E*d
Vc - Vb = 1000 * 4*(1.0/100)
Vc - Vb = 40 V

(c)
Vc - Va = E*d*cos()
Vc - Va = 1000 * 5*(1/100) * 4/5
Vc - Va = 40 V
