The electric potential in region is reprsented as `V=2x+3y-z`. Obtain an expression for electric field strength.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`E=-|(delV)/(delx) hati+(del V)/(dely)hatj+(delV)/(delz) hatk|`
`(delV)/(delx)=(del)/(delx)=(2x+3y-z)=2`
`(delV)/(dely)=3, (del V)/(delz)=-1`
`:.` Electric field ` E=-2 hati-3 hatj= 1hatk`
