E2020

Answer 2

`E=2.81* 10^5\ N/C`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Charge,
`Q=6.4* 10^(-7)\ C`

Electric force,
`F=1.8* 10^(-1)\ N`

We need to find the electric field strength. We know that due to the charge a force act on it. It is called electric force. The relation between electric force and electric field is given by :

`F=qE`

E is electric field strength

`E=(F)/(Q)\\\\E=(1.8* 10^(-1))/(6.4* 10^(-7))\\\\E=2.81* 10^5\ N/C`

So, the electric field strength is
`2.81* 10^5\ N/C`.
