Answer:

V = 0.87 volt

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Charge,
$q=7.3* 10^(-17)\ C$

Electric potential energy,
$U=6.4* 10^(-17)\ J$

We need to find the value of electric potential at a point. The relation is as follows :

V=(U)/(q)

Where

V is electric potential

So,

$V=(6.4* 10^(-17))/(7.3* 10^(-17))\\\\V=0.87\ V$

So, the value of the electric potential at a point is equal to 0.87 Volts.
