Exercise 13
Field from the equipotential surfaces
Theory used: Field and equipotential surfacesEquipotential surfacesPotential difference in a uniform fieldElectronvolt
In a region with a uniform field the equipotential surfaces are parallel planes; two consecutive planes are apart and their potentials differ by . Compute the magnitude of the field and the work done by the field on an electron that goes from the surface at to the surface at .
