I am trying to solve this problem:
The electric potential in a region of space is V = 210x^2 - 270y^2, where x and y are in meters. Find the E-field at (3m, 1m)
So I started with:
[tex]E = \frac{V}{d}[/tex]
so then I plugged x and y into the electric potential equation and got
V= -200 Volts
Then I multiplied it by the distance [tex]d=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex]
Unfortunately this is not the right answer. Perhaps someone could show me where I went wrong
Thanks
