Question #7b283

1 Answer

I used the formula of E=k_eq_1/r^2E=keq1r2

Explanation:

This is the Coulumb's Law
F_e=k(q_1q_2)/r^2Fe=kq1q2r2
F_e=qEFe=qE; F_e/q=EFeq=E
This cancels out one of the charges.
Also, k_e=1/(4piepsilon_o)ke=14πεo
epsilon_o=8.85*10^-12 F/mεo=8.851012Fm in air
Plugging it in I get
k_e=8.99*10^9ke=8.99109
Plugging that into our Derived Equation
E=(8.99&10^9 N m^2 C^-2)(100 C)/(1^2m^2)E=(8.99&109Nm2C2)100C12m2
E=8.99*10^11 N/CE=8.991011NC
