C) What is the potential difference ?VBC ? *** PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER, SHOW YOUR WORK FOR HIGHER RATINGS/BEST ANSWER ***Explanation / Answer
potential due to charge is given by V= (1/4phiepslono)*(1/r)
V= 9*10^9*(q/r)
A)
Va=9*10^9*2.3*10^-9*(1/0.012)=1725 V
Vb=9*10^9*2.3*10^-9*(1/0.012)=1725 V
Vc=9*10^9*2.3*10^-9*(1/0.021)=985.7 V
B) Vab=Va-vb=0 V
c)Vbc=Vb-Vc=739.2 V
