Q.
The electric field in a region is given by E=(Ax+B)i^ where E is in NC−1and x is in metres. The values of constants are A=20SI unit and B=10SI unit. If the potential at x=1 is V1 and that at x=−5 is V2, then V1−V2 (in volt) is:

Answer: 180
Solution:
Given, E=(Ax+B)i^
or E=20x+10
Using V=∫Edx, we have <br/>V2−V1=∫−51(20x+10)dx=−180V<br/>
or V1−V2=180V
