The electric potential decreases uniformly from `100 V` to `50 V` as one moves along the x-axis from `x = 0` to `x = 5 m`. The electric field at `x = 2 m` must be equal to `10 V//m`. Is this statement true or false.

Explanation

`(delV)/(delx)=(-50)/5=-10V//m`
Now `|E|=sqrt(((delV)/(delx))^2+((delV)/(dely))^2+((delV)/(delz))^2)`
now information is given about `(delV)/(dely) and (delV)/(delz)`. Hence `
`|E|ge|(delV)/(delx)| or |E|ge10V/m`
