Assume that an electric field \( (20\hat{i}) \text{ V m}^{-1} \) exists in the region of space. If \( V_0 \) is the potential at the origin and \( V_A \) is the potential at \( x = 1 \text{ m} \), then the potential difference \( V_A - V_0 \) is :

  1. A - 20 V
  2. B + 2 V
  3. C - 4 V
  4. D + 4 V
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) - 20 V

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( V_A - V_0 = - \int_{0}^{1} \vec{E} \cdot d\vec{l} \) \( V_A - V_0 = - \int_{0}^{1} (20\hat{i}) \cdot (dx\hat{i}) \) \( V_A - V_0 = - [20x]_{0}^{1} = - (20(1) - 20(0)) = -20 \text{ V} \)
