Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The electric filed is
Generally according to Gauss law
=>
Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become
Here is the excess charge on the surface of the earth
is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as
Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value
substituting values
So
Here s the permitivity of free space with value
substituting values
Answer:
a) [volts] = [N m / C],
b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential
c) the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines
Explanation:
a) find the units of the volt
the electric potential energy is
V = k q / r
V = [N m² / C²] C / m
V = [N m / C]
The electric potential is defined as
V = E .s
V = [N / C] [m]
V = [N m / C] = [volt]
we see that in the two expressions the same result is obtained therefore the volt is
[volts] = [N m / C]
b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential surfaces, the great utility of these lines or surfaces is that a face can be displaced on it without doing work.
c) The electric potential is defined as the gradient of the electric field
v =
therefore the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines
