Calculate the potential at a point P due...

Calculate the potential at a point P due to a charge of `4 × 10^(-7)` C located 9 cm away.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here `Q = 4xx10^(-7)`C
r=9 cm `9xx10^(-2)` m
Potential at a point P,
`V=(kQ)/(r)`
`=(9xx10^(9)xx4xx10^(-7))/(9xx10^(-2))`
`=4xx10^(4)V`
