Concept:
- The electric field of a unit charge
- Vector calculations
Given:
- Position of charge = (0, 0, 2)
- Position of the point at which electric field is to be measured = (4, 4, 3)
Find:
- The magnitude of the electric field at the point (4, 4, 3)
Solution:
The distance between the points (0, 0, 2) and (4, 4, 3) is
Vector R = (4i -0i) + (4j -0j) +(3z -2z)
Vector R = 4i + 4j +1z
The magnitude of R = √4²+4²+1² = √33
To determine the magnitude of the electric field, we need to know the value of the charge.
We do not have the value of the charge, so the magnitude of the electric field cannot be determined.
