20

Given :

Electric field intensity at a point 2m from a point charge is 400N/C.

Tofind :

If a charge of 20 micro coulomb is placed at that point, it will experience a force of how much?

Theory:

Electric Field Intensity :

Electric field intensity at a point due to a Given charge is defined as force experienced by a unit positive charge placed at that point.

{\purple{\boxed{\large{\bold{\sf\:\vec{E}=\lim_{q_{o}\to0}\frac{\vec{F}}{q_{o}}}}}}}

Solution:

\implies\:\vec{E}=400\:NC{}^{-1}

⇒r = distance from point charge =2m

Now a charge of 20μC is placed at that point .

We have to find force experienced by it .

\bf\:\vec{F}=q\vec{E}

\implies\:\sf\:\vec{F}=20\times10{}^{-6}\times400

\implies\:\sf\:\vec{F}=20\times10{}^{-6}\times400

\implies\:\sf\:\vec{F}=8\times10{}^{-6}\times10{}^{3}

\implies\:\sf\:\vec{F}=8\times10{}^{-3}\:N

Therefore, it will experience

1) The SI unit of electric field is N/C or volt/meter .

Electric field intensity at a point 2m from a point charge is 400N/C

2)It is a vector quantity and it's direction is the same as force on the positive test charge .
