A 0.85 N force exists between a 7.1 * 10 ^ - 6 * C charge 5.4 m away. What is the magnitude of the second charge ? Please show work

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between charge is given by the following expression

F = k Q₁ Q₂ / R² , k = 9 x 10⁹ , Q₁ and Q₂ are charges , R is distance between charges .

Putting the given values ,

.85  = 9 x 10⁹ x 7.1 x 10⁻⁶ x Q₂ / 5.4²

Q₂ = .85 x  5.4² / (9 x 10⁹ x 7.1 x 10⁻⁶ )

= .38788  x 10⁻³ C .

= 387.88 x 10⁻⁶ C .
