Electric Potential Energy
 

Electric Potential Energy problem 4


Two planes that are perpendicular to a homogeneous electric field of strength 30 kV/cm are spaced 2 cm apart, as shown in the figure below. Point 4 in the figure should have zero potential.

  • What is the voltage between points 1 and 3?

  • What is the potential at point 1?
