The electrical force on a 2-coulomb charge is 60 Newtons (N). What is the magnitude of the electric field at the place where the charge is located?

Respuesta :

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

            Charge (q) = 2 coulomb,        Force (F) = 60 N

Now, it is known that the relation between electric field, force and charge is as follows.

       Magnitude of electric field (E) = [tex]\frac{Force}{charge}[/tex]

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

              Electric field (E) = [tex]\frac{Force}{charge}[/tex]

                                         = [tex]\frac{60 N}{2 C}[/tex]

                                         = 30 N/C

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the electric field at the place where the charge is located is 30 N/C.

The magnitude of the electric field at the place where the charge is located is 30 N/C

What is electric field strength?

This is simply defined as the force per unit charge. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

E = F / Q

Where

E is the electric field strength

F is the force

Q is the charge

How to determine the electric field strength

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Force (F) = 60 N
  • Charge (Q) = 2 C
  • Electric field strength (E) =?

E = F/Q

E = 60 / 2

E = 30 N/C
