Electrostatics Question 362
Question: At a certain distance from a point charge the electric field is $ 500V/m $ and the potential is $ 3000V $ . What is this distance [MP PMT 1995; Pb. PMT 2001; AFMC 2001]
Options:
A) $ 6m $
B) $ 12m $
C) $ 36m $
D) $ 144m $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
$ V=E\times r $
therefore $ r=\frac{V}{E}=\frac{3000}{500}=6m $
