Question

A 2-C charge experiences a force of 40 N when put at a certain location in

space. The electric field at that location is a. 2 N/C.b. 20 N/C. c. 30 N/C. d.
40 N/C. e. 60 N/C.

Answer 1

E = 20 N/C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q = 2 C

Force experience, F = 40 N

We need to find the electric field at that location.

The electric field in terms of electric force is given by :

F = qE

Where

E is the electric field

`E=(F)/(q)\\\\E=(40\ N)/(2\ C)\\E=20\ N/C`

So, the electric field at that location is 20 N/C.
