How far do you need to separate two opposite 1C charges inorder for the potential difference to be 1v?
The discussion centers on calculating the potential difference created by two opposite 1C charges. The potential difference is defined as the difference in electric potential between two points, which varies with distance from the charges. The reference potential is typically assumed to be 0 V at infinity, leading to the formula for electric potential from a point charge: Φ = 1/(4πε₀) * (q/r). This formula illustrates how potential decreases with increasing distance from the charge.
