You will write three functions about potential and field. They use and .
The idea. A potential can be given as a Python function V(x). The field is minus the slope, and the slope can be found from a tiny step on each side of . For a point charge, an equipotential surface is a sphere.
Your tasks.
field_from_potential, return at the position x. Use the potential at x + h and at x - h.sphere_radius, return the radius in m of the equipotential sphere with potential V round a point charge q in C.surface_gap, return the distance in m between the sphere at V_high and the sphere at V_low round the same positive charge.Have you tried it?
Do the tasks in the editor first, and run the checker after each one. Its hints help when a check fails. When you are ready, compare your code with this solution.
