Question
Problem 20.3
A uniform electric field of magnitude 4.0×105 N/Cpoints in the positive x direction.
Part A
Find the change in electric potential between the origin and the point (0, 6.0 m).
Express your answer using one significant figure.
Part B
Find the change in electric potential between the origin and the point (6.0 m, 0).
Express your answer using two significant figures.
Part C
Find the change in electric potential between the origin and the point (6.0 m, 6.0 m).
Express your answer using two significant figures.

V = VPart B
Find the change in electric potential between the origin and the point (6.0 m, 0).
Express your answer using two significant figures.
V = VPart C
Find the change in electric potential between the origin and the point (6.0 m, 6.0 m).
Express your answer using two significant figures.
Explanation / Answer
given are
electric field=4.0×105 N/C
point(0,6m)
a) for a it will remain zero since the electric field in the y direction which will be perpendicular to the electric field will remain zero
b)now using teh below formula
delta V = -Edelta d
=-4.0×10^5 *(0-6)
delta v=24*10^5 V
c) now it will have the same change in potential differenece as it is also in the same distance from origin as the part b on the y axis.
delta v=24*10^5 V--answer
