Question

The electrostatic potential V at any point (x, y, z) in space is given by V = 4x . Then

(A) the y- and z-components of the electrostatic field at any point are zero

(B) the x-component of field at a point is given by (-8xi)

(C) the x-component at a point (1, 0, 2) is (-81)

(D) the y- and z-components of the field are non-zero constant in magnitude.​

Answer 1

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

electric field is given by:-

$e = - \frac{dv}{dx} i - \frac{dv}{dy} j - \frac{dv}{dz} k$

(remember that it is a partial differential equation)

so

electric field= -4 i

option A is correct
