2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
medium

For given $\vec E = 2x\hat i + 3y\hat j$, find the potential at $(X, Y)$ if potential at origin is $5\, volts.$

A

$ - {X^2} - \frac{3}{2}{Y^2} + 5$

B

$\frac{{ - 2}}{3}{X^2} - \frac{3}{2}{Y^2} + 5$

C

$ - 2{X^2} - \frac{{3{Y^2}}}{2}$

D

$\frac{{3{Y^2}}}{2} + 5$

Solution

$\int_{5}^{\mathrm{V}} \mathrm{dV}=-\int_{(0,0)}^{(\mathrm{X} , \mathrm{Y})} \mathrm{E} \cdot \mathrm{dr}=-\int_{0}^{\mathrm{X}} \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{X}} \cdot \mathrm{dx}-\int_{0}^{\mathrm{Y}} \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{Y}} \mathrm{dy}$

$V-5=\frac{-2 X^{2}}{2} \frac{-3 Y^{2}}{2}$

$V=\frac{-2 X^{2}}{2} \frac{-3 Y^{2}}{2}+5$
