Question

9:17 PM session.masteringphysics.com Item 7 MasteringPhysics The electric potential at a certain distance from a point charge can be represented by V What is the value of the electric potential at twice the distance from the point charge? .ill Sprint At twice the distance, the electric potential is V/4 At twice the distance, the electric potential is 2V At twice the distance, the electric At twice the distance, the electric At twice the distance, the electric potential remains potential is 4V potential is V/2.

Explanation / Answer

Here ,

as the electric potential is given as

V = k * Q/r

when r becomes 2 times ,

the potential V will be half

hence , At twice the distance , the electric potential is V/2
