- Homework Statement
- Let's suppose an increasing electric potential along the positive Z axis, such that the XY plane is at ##V=0##. If the potential increases by 15 V every centimeter, calculate the module and direction of the electric field. Draw the coordinate system and vector representing the electric field

- ##\Delta{V}=-E\Delta{x}##
Hello everybody!
I want to check out if I've solved correctly:
##\Delta{V}=-E\Delta{x}##
##\dfrac{\Delta{V}}{\Delta{x}}=-E##
##\dfrac{15\;V}{10^{-2}\;m}=-E##
##1,5\times{10^3}\;N/C=-E##
##\vec{E}## direction it's oriented into the XY plane
Thanks!
