Q71JEE Main 2022 · 29 JUN · SHIFT 2Easy

Electric Potential & Equipotentials

If the electric potential at any point (x, y, z) m in space is given by V = 3x2 volt. The electric field at the point (1, 0, 3) m will be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Ex=−dVdx=−6xE_x = -\dfrac{dV}{dx} = -6x
  2. At x=1x = 1 m: Ex=−6E_x = -6 V/m
  3. So the answer is (d) 6 V m−1^{-1} along negative x-axis.
