Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the electric potential at the center of a regular hexagon with a charge at each vertex, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understand the Geometry of the Hexagon**: A regular hexagon has six equal sides. Given that each side of the hexagon is 10 cm, we can denote the distance from the center of the hexagon to any vertex as \( d \). 2. **Calculate the Distance from Center to Vertex**: ...
