Answer to Question #103393 in Electricity and Magnetism for dfd

Question

A charge experiences a force of 1.5 x 10 -6 N in a uniform electric field of intensity 8.8 N/C. What is the charge?

Answer 1

A force acts on an electron in an electric field

$F=q⋅E$

Where will we write

$q=\frac{F}{E}=\frac{1.5 \cdot 10^{-6}}{8.8}=1.705 \cdot 10^{-7}C$
