In a region, the potential is represented by \(V=(x,y,z)=6x-8xy-8y+6yz,\) where \(V\) is in volts and \(x,y,z\) are in meters. The electric force experienced by a charge of \(2\) coulomb situated at a point \((1,1,1)\) is:
1. \(6\sqrt{5}~\text{N}\)
2. \(30~\text{N}\)
3. \(24~\text{N}\)
4. \(4\sqrt{35}~\text{N}\)
In a certain region of space with volume \(0.2\) m3, the electric potential is found to be \(5\) V throughout. The magnitude of electric field in this region is:
1. \(0.5\) N/C
2. \(1\) N/C
3. \(5\) N/C
4. zero
The electric field at the origin is along the positive x-axis. A small circle is drawn with the centre at the origin cutting the axes at points \(\mathrm A\), \(\mathrm B\), \(\mathrm C\) and \(\mathrm D\) having coordinates \((a,0),(0,a),(-a,0),(0,-a)\) respectively. Out of the points on the periphery of the circle, the potential is minimum at:
1. \(\mathrm A\)
2. \(\mathrm B\)
3. \(\mathrm C\)
4. \(\mathrm D\)
