Solution

The electric potential V produced by a point charge q at a distance r is given by the formula:

V = k*q/r

where:

  • k is Coulomb's constant, which is approximately 8.9910^9 Nm^2/C^2,
  • q is the charge, which in this case is 6.80*10^-7 C, and
  • r is the distance, which in this case is 2.60 cm = 0.026 m (since 1 m = 100 cm).

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

V = (8.9910^9 Nm^2/C^2) * (6.80*10^-7 C) / (0.026 m)

Solving this equation will give you the electric potential V in volts (V).
