2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
easy

The electric potential $V$ is given as a function of distance $x$ (metre) by $V = (5{x^2} + 10x - 9)\,volt$. Value of electric field at $x = 1$ is......$V/m$

A

$-20$

B

$6$

C

$11$

D

$ - 23$

Solution

(a) $E = – \frac{{dV}}{{dx}} = – \frac{d}{{dx}}(5{x^2} + 10x – 9) = – 10x – 10$
 ${(E)_{x = 1}} = – 10 \times 1 – 10 = – \,20\,V/m$
