1. Homework Statement
Ok, so part i) asks us to state how the magnitude of electric field strength is related to potential gradient, and that I answered electric field strength is potential gradient.
Electric field strength E=Q/(4πεr^2)
F=Qq/(4πεr^2)
Electric potential energy = Qq/(4πεr)
I know that the electric force is proportional to EPE, but I can't seem to relate to part i)
