In an electric field shown in figure, three equipotential figure, three equipotential surfaces are shown. If function are shown. If function of electric field is `E=2x^2Vm^(-1)`, and given that `V_1 - V_2 = V_2-V_3`, then we have

A

`x_1 = x_2`

B

`x_1gtx_2`

C

`x_2gtx_1`

D

data insufficient

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
b. As `E` increasing along `x-`axis, same potential drop will occur for lesser values of distance. Hence `x_(2)ltx_(1)`.
