Question

Find the electric field intensity at a distance of 20cm from a charge of 2nC.
Options
A 1800 N/C
B 0.045 N/C
C 45 kN/C
D 450 N/C
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

E = kQ/r² = (8.99×10⁹)(2×10⁻⁹)/(0.2)² ≈ 450 N/C.

Hint

Apply E = kQ/r² directly with the given charge and distance.
