Two parallel plates of area 2.34*10-3 M2 have 7.07*10-7C of charge placed on them. A6.62*10-5C charge q1 is placed between the plates. What is the magnitude of the electric force on q1?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The force exerted on the [tex]q_1[/tex] is  [tex]F = 2.25*10^{3} \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The area is  [tex]A = 2.34*10^{-3} \ m^2[/tex]

     The magnitude of charge placed on them is  [tex]q = 7.07 * 10^{-7} C[/tex]

     The charge placed between the plate is [tex]q_1 = 6.62 *10^{-5} C[/tex]

   

The electric field generated around the plate  is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E = \frac{q}{A \epsilon_o}[/tex]

Substituting values

          [tex]E = \frac{7.07*10^{-7}}{2.34*10^{-3} * 8.85 *10^{-12}}[/tex]

         [tex]E = 34*10^{6} \ V/m[/tex]

The force exerted the charge [tex]q_1[/tex] is  mathematically represented as

        [tex]F = q_1 * E[/tex]

Substituting values  

        [tex]F = 6.62 *10^{-5} * 34*10^{6}[/tex]

        [tex]F = 2.25*10^{3} \ N[/tex]
