A uniform electric field E = (-6 kV/m) i established in the xy-plane. Consider the spatial coordinates: Po = (0,0) cm, P₁ = (-4,0) cm and P₂ (4,4) cm. a. Which point is at a higher potential? Explain in 1-2 sentences. b. Calculate the magnitude of the voltage between P₁ and P₂. c. If an external agent moves a charged body q, that has charge 3e on it from P₂ to P₁ at constant speed, calculate its change in potential energy, AU21 U₁U₂, in units of electron volts. = d. If q, is released from rest at P₁, how fast is it moving at P,? A uniform electric field E = (-6 kV/m) i established in the xy-plane.
