Question
A graph of thexcomponent of the electric field as a function ofxin a region of space is shown in the figure. The scale of the vertical axis is set byExs= 20.0 N/C. Theyandzcomponents of the electric field are zero in this region. If the electric potential at the origin is 16 V,(a)what is the electric potential (in V) atx= 2.0 m,(b)what is the greatest positive value of the electric potential (in V) for points on thexaxis for which 0 <=x<= 6.0 m, and(c)for what value ofxis the electric potential zero?

The image is not visible so it is difficult to find the solution however the formula below will help you Vf-Vi=-?E.ds where vf=Potential final vi=Potential initial E = electric field ds = an alloted distance vf-vi = -(integral from initial to final) E dot ds Also You can refer this http://www.phys.ufl.edu/courses/phy2049/old_exams/2008f/exam1_sol.pdf
