A Uniform electric field of `10NC ^(-1)` exists in the vertically downward direction. Find the increase in the electric potential as one goes up through a height of 50cm.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the increase in electric potential when moving upwards through a height of 50 cm in a uniform electric field of \(10 \, \text{N/C}\) that is directed downwards. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between electric field and electric potential**: The electric potential difference (\( \Delta V \)) in a uniform electric field (\( E \)) can be calculated using the formula: \[ \Delta V = -E \cdot d ...
