Electrostatic potential

Question

Uniform electric field of magnitude 100 V /m in space is directed along the line y = 3+ x. Find the potential difference between points A (3, 1) and B (I, 3) :

Easy

A

100 V
B

$200 \sqrt{2} V$
C

200 V
D

0

Solution

Slope of line AB = $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{3 - 1}{1 - 3} = - 1$
Slope of line y = 3 + x is + I.
So, line AB is perpendicular to given line.
