  1. Describe the graph for Electric Field (EE) versus distance (rr).

    To plot the electric field (EE) against distance (rr), you would set the horizontal axis (x-axis) for rr from 0.1 m0.1 \, \text{m} to 1.0 m1.0 \, \text{m} and the vertical axis (y-axis) for EE from 0 to approximately 9×105 N C−19 \times 10^5 \, \text{N C}^{-1}. The graph would show a steep, downward-sloping curve. This curve represents an inverse square relationship (E∝1r2E \propto \frac{1}{r^2}), meaning EE decreases very rapidly as rr increases, especially at smaller distances, and then flattens out as rr gets larger.

  2. Describe the graph for Electric Potential (VV) versus distance (rr).

    To plot the electric potential (VV) against distance (rr), you would use the same horizontal axis for rr from 0.1 m0.1 \, \text{m} to 1.0 m1.0 \, \text{m}. The vertical axis for VV would range from 0 to approximately 9×104 V9 \times 10^4 \, \text{V}. This graph would also be a downward-sloping curve, but it would be less steep than the EE vs. rr graph. This curve represents an inverse relationship (V∝1rV \propto \frac{1}{r}), showing that VV decreases as rr increases, but at a slower rate compared to the electric field.

  3. Summary of the plots.

    Both graphs would start at high values for small rr and decrease towards zero as rr increases, reflecting the inverse relationships with distance. The EE vs. rr graph would be steeper due to its inverse square dependence, while the VV vs. rr graph would be less steep due to its inverse dependence.
