The potential field of an electric field...

The potential field of an electric field `vecE = (yhati + yhati)` is

A

`V = - xy +` constant

B

`V = - (x + y) +` constant

C

`V = - (x^(2) + Y^(2)) +` constant

D

`V =` constant

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`dV = - vecE. dvecr`
`= -(y hati + x hatj), (dxhati + dy hatj)`
`= - (ydx + xdy) = - d(xy)`
Intergrating , we get `V = - xy +` constant .
