The magnitude of the uniform electric field, if the electric potential is -2000 v at x = 8m and is 400 v at x = 2 m in x direction will be, 400V/m.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the electric field.

How to find the magnitude of uniform electric field?

  • a space where other charged particles or things would be forced to move away from a charged particle or item is called the electric field.
  • The expression for electric field in terms of potential V and the distance x can be written as,

                                         [tex]E=\frac{dV}{dx}[/tex]

where, dV is the potential difference at two different points of the conductor and dx is the difference of the points.

  • Thus, the magnitude of electric field can be written as,

                      [tex]|E|=|-(\frac{dV}{dx} )|=|-(\frac{-2000-400}{8-2} )|\\\\|E|=400V/m[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnitude of the uniform electric field, if the electric potential is -2000 v at x = 8m and is 400 v at x = 2 m in x direction will be, 400V/m.
