Question

What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between a −5.0μC and a +5.8μC charge 8.4cm apart? Assume no other charges are nearby.]

Answer 1

Electric Field = E = 36.848 N/C

Step-by-step explanation:

In accordance with Columb's law

E = k Q1 Q2 / r.r = 8.99 x 10^9 x 5.0 x 10^-6 x 5.8 x 10^-6 / 0.084 x 0.084

= 36948.6961 x 10^-3 = 36.848 N/C
