The electrostatic potential due to a point charge is calculated at three points, who of which are at the same distance but different directions.  This relates to the idea that the equipoptentials of a point charge are spheres centred on the charge, so all points at the same distance are at the same potential.

This question requires unit conversion, numerical calculations and some critical evaluation.

The data is fitted by linear and quadratic regression.  First, find a linear regression equation for the $n$ data points, $20 \le n \le 35$.

They then are shown that the quadratic regression is often a better fit as measured by SSE. Also users can experiment with fitting polynomials of higher degree.
