Given information

Case A: If Electric field is uniform in a region then find Electric Potential  

Case B: If Electric potential is uniform in a region then find Electric Field  

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

Case A: If Electric field  is uniform in a region then find Electric Potential 

the electric field is given by:

 

so if the electric field   is uniform in a region then potential   must be directly proportional  

You can deduce that the electric potential in a region of space is increasing or decreasing consistently if the electric field in that region is uniform.
