Homework Statement
Given the distance between 7V equipotential and the 5V at point B is .9cm and the distance between the 3V equipotential and the 5V at point B is 1.0cm, the magnitude of the electric field at point B is _____ V/cm (carry to one decimal)
Homework Equations
E = |delta V| / delta X
The Attempt at a Solution
7V - 5V / .9cm = 2.22 V/cm
5V - 3V / 1cm = 2 V/cm
2.22 V/cm + 2 V/cm = 4.22 V/cm
(7V - 5V) * .9cm = 1.8 V/cm
(5V - 3V) * 1cm = 2 V/cm
1.8 V/cm + 2 V/cm = 3.8 V/cm
Thanks in advanced!
