Question

determine the electric field vector at a distance of 0.5m from a charge of - 2uc​

Answer 1

Answer:

Contact forces, such as between a baseball and a bat, are explained on the small scale by the interaction of the charges in atoms and molecules in close proximity. They interact through forces that include the Coulomb force. Action at a distance is a force between objects that are not close enough for their atoms to “touch.” That is, they are separated by more than a few atomic diameters.

For example, a charged rubber comb attracts neutral bits of paper from a distance via the Coulomb force. It is very useful to think of an object being surrounded in space by a force field. The force field carries the force to another object (called a test object) some distance away.

Concept of a Field

A field is a way of conceptualizing and mapping the force that surrounds any object and acts on another object at a distance without apparent physical connection. For example, the gravitational field surrounding the earth (and all other masses) represents the gravitational force that would be experienced if another mass were placed at a given point within the field.

In the same way, the Coulomb force field surrounding any charge extends throughout space. Using Coulomb’s law,

, for a point charge (a particle having a charge Q) acting on a test charge q at a distance r (see Figure 1). Both the magnitude and direction of the Coulomb force field depend on Q and the test charge q.

Answer 2

$\huge \fbox \green{❤Answer:}$

$q= -2 uC = -2 \times {10}^{ - 6} C ,r = 0.50 \: m$

$⇒E = \frac{1}{4 \: \pi \: e \frac{}{0} } \frac{q}{ {r}^{2} }$

$r = 9 \times {10}^{9} \frac{ - 2 \times {10}^{16} }{(0.50 {)}^{2} } r$

$= - 7.2 \times {10}^{4} r \: N {C}^{ - 1}$
