Answer:
V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3
Explanation:
The electric potential is defined by
= - ∫ E .ds
In this case the electric field is in the direction and the points (ds) are also in the direction and therefore the angle is zero and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product.
V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ E ds
We substitute
V_{b} - V_{a} = - ∫ (α + β/ y²) dy
We integrate
V_{b} - V_{a} = - α y + β / y
We evaluate between the lower limit A 2 cm = 0.02 m and the upper limit B 3 cm = 0.03 m
V_{b} - V_{a} = - α (0.03 - 0.02) + β (1 / 0.03 - 1 / 0.02)
V_{b} - V_{a} = - 600 0.01 + 5 (-16.67) = -6 - 83.33
V_{b} - V_{a} = - 89.3 V
As they ask us the reverse case
V_{b} - V_{a} = - V_{b} - V_{a}
V_{a} - V_{b} = 89.3
