Question

A small object carrying a charge of 5x10-9 C experiences a downward force of 20x10-9 N when placed at a certain point in an electric field. What is the electric field at the point?
Options
A 2.32 N/C
B 4.25 N/C
C 4.00 N/C
Correct Answer
D 5.59 N/C
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

E = F/q = (20x10-9)/(5x10-9) = 4.00 N/C.

Hint

E = F/q = (20x10-9)/(5x10-9) = 4.00 N/C.
