E = 40 72 This problem checks your understanding of the term in the equation for the electric field due to a point charge, Consider a charged particle at a point S whose coordinates are (4 m, 2 m, 6 m). We would like to find the electric field vector at a point P whose coordinates are (7 m, 8 m, 1 m). The "unit vector" is a vector that points from S to P that has length of 1 (or "unity"). What is its y component, in meters? (Report your answer to one decimal place.)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Electric field vector produced by a point charge some distance r away from it is given as

E=kqr2r^k is a constant, k=9×109q is the magnitude of the charge

In the given problem, a charged particle is placed at point S with co-ordinates (4,2,6) m.

Point P has co-ordinates (7,8,1) m
