Answer:
Explanation:
As figure is not given so considering the most relevant diagram for question attached below
We can define Electric field as rate of change of electric potential with respect to space (say x-axis here). It is related in formula as
a) For Region A to B:
As can be seen from figure, point charge moves from 0 to 0.2 along x-axis, the value of electric potential remains constant i.e 5 volts
b) For Region B to C:
As point charge moves from B to C (0.2 to 0.4) along x-axis, the value of electric potential decreases from 5 volts to 3 volts. Electric field induced is:
c) For Region C to D:
As point charge moves from C to D (0.4 to 0.8) along x-axis, the value of electric potential decreases from 3 volts to 1 volt. Electric field induced is:
For Information:
Unit of Electric field is V/m or N/C
