A dipole is formed by separating a +200 nC and -200 nC charge a distance of 21 mm. Determine the magnitude of the electric field at a distance of 18 meters measured perpendicularly from the midpoint between the charges. Express your answer in N/C.
please answer both parts
part a)
A dipole is formed by separating a +200 nC and -200 nC charge a distance of 21 mm. Determine the magnitude of the electric field at a distance of 18 meters measured perpendicularly from the midpoint between the charges. Express your answer in N/C.
part b)
The electric field at point P is 6.9 x 1020 N/C @ 309o. What is the magnitude of the force experienced by a electron if it is placed at point P. Express your answer in newtons.
Given:
The charge is q=200 nC.
The distance between dipole is 2a=21 mm.
The distance at which electric field is to find is y=18 m.
The expression for magnitude of the electric field is:
Here, is the electrical permittivity and the value of is 9X109 N-m2/C2.
