A dipole is centered at the origin, with its axis along the y axis, so that at locations on the y axis, the electric field due to the dipole is given by
The charges making up the dipole are and , and the dipole separation is (Figure 16.82). What is the potential difference along a path starting at location and ending at location ?

A particle with charge\( + {q_1}\)and a particle with charge\( - {q_2}\)are located as shown in figure 16.91. What is the potential (relative to infinity) at location A.

Locationsare on the +x axis, as shown in Figure 16.61. Four possible expressions for the electric field along the x axis are given below. For each expression for the electric field, select the correct expression (1–8) for the potential difference. In each case K is a numerical constant with appropriate units.
Four voltmeters are connected to a circuit as shown in figure 16.90. As is usual with voltmeters, the reading on the voltmeter is positive if the negative lead (black wire, usually labled COM) is connected to a location at lower potential, and the positive lead(red) is connected to a location at higher potential. The circuit contains two devices whose identity is unknown and a rod (green) of length 9 cm made of conducting material. At a particular moment, the reading observed in the voltmeters are, voltmeter A: -1.6 V, voltmeter B: -6 V, voltmeter A: -3.5 V. (a) At this moment, what is the reading on voltmeter D, both magnitude and sign? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the electric field inside the rod?
