two-point charges are 10.0 cm apart and have charges of 2.0 uc and -2.0uc respectively What is the magnitude of the electrical field at the midpoint between the two charges?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Electric field due to two charges is given as

[tex]E = 1.44 \times 10^7 N/C[/tex]

Explanation:

As we know that two charges are opposite in nature

So the electric field at the mid point of two charges will add together

so the net field is given as

[tex]E = 2\frac{kq}{r^2}[/tex]

now we have

[tex]q = 2\times 10^{-6} C[/tex]

[tex]r = 5 cm = 0.05 m[/tex]

now we have

[tex]E = 2\frac{(9\times 10^9)(2\times 10^{-6})}{0.05^2}[/tex]

[tex]E = 1.44 \times 10^7 N/C[/tex]
