The potential at any point is given by `V = x(y^2 - 4 x^2)`. Calculate the cartesian components of the electric field at the point. |

Answer» Here `V = x(y^2 - 4 x^2)`. So `E_x = -(del V)/(del x) = -(del)/(del x) [xy^2 - 4x^3]` =`- [y^2 - 12x^2]` or `E_x = [12 x ^2 - y^2]` Similarly, `E_y = -(del V)/(del y) = -(del)/(del y) [x (y^2 - 4 x^2)]` or =`- (del)/(del y) [xy^2 - 4 x^3] = -2x y` `E_z = -0` because V does not depend upon the z- coordinate. |
