Question

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field strength at a point in a field where an electronn experiences a force with a magnitude of 3.9 * 10^(-16) N.

Answer 1

`2,434.46N\/C`

Step-by-step explanation

To find the strength of the electric field, apply the formula below:

`E=(F)/(q)`

where F = electric force, q = charge of the electron

Hence, the strength of the electric field is:

`\begin{gathered} E=(3.9\cdot10^(-16))/(1.602\cdot10^(-19)) \\ E=2,434.46N\/C \end{gathered}`

That is the answer.
