A positive charge of 6.0 x 10-4 C is in an electric field that exerts a force of 4.5 x 10 -4 on it. What is the strength of the electric field?

Respuesta :

Electric field is defined as force per unit charge.

So it is given by

[tex]F = q E[/tex]

now we can find electric field by

[tex]E = \frac{F}{q}[/tex]

[tex]E = \frac{4.5*10^{-4}}{6 * 10^{-4}}[/tex]

[tex]E = 0.75 N/C[/tex]

So field strength is 0.75 N/C.
