 A 5.6 g charged insulating ball hangs on a 0.95 cm long string in a uniform horizontal electric field as shown in the figure.

a)  Given the charge on the ball is 28 μC , find the strength of the field in N/C. 

The image shows a diagram of a pendulum. At the top, there is a horizontal support beam from which a string hangs. The string holds a weight labeled "q" at the bottom. The pendulum is displaced from its resting position, forming an angle of 8 degrees with the vertical dashed line that represents the pendulum's rest position. The angle is marked with an arc and labeled "8°".

Parallel blue arrows are drawn across the image horizontally, suggesting the influence of an external force or field, possibly indicating magnetic or electric field lines, as they are evenly spaced and point in the same direction. This illustrates the pendulum’s movement or the influence of a field on the pendulum's swing.
