The potential difference between points A and B in the electric field is approximately equal to [tex]5.22 \times 10^5\;V[/tex]

Given the following data:

  • Kinetic energy = [tex]8.35 \times 10^{-14} \;Joule[/tex]

Scientific data:

  • Charge of proton = [tex]1.6 \times 10^{-19}\;C[/tex]

To determine the potential difference between points A and B in the electric field:

Mathematically, kinetic energy is calculated by using this formula;

[tex]K.E = qV_d[/tex]

Where:

  • K.E is the kinetic energy.
  • q is the charge of a particle.
  • [tex]V_d[/tex] is the potential difference of a particle.

Making [tex]V_d[/tex] the subject of formula, we have:

[tex]V_d = \frac{K.E}{q}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]V_d = \frac{8.35 \times 10^{-14} }{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\V_d = 521875[/tex]

When [tex]V_d[/tex] is approximated, we have:

Potential difference = 522,000 Volts

Potential difference = [tex]5.22 \times 10^5\;Volts[/tex]
