Question

The constant k, which appears in Coulomb's law formula, is dimensionally equivalent to which of the following?
Options
A N.m/C
B N/C2
C N.m2/C2
Correct Answer
D N/C
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Same reasoning as Q4: from F = kq1q2/r2, the units of k are N.m2/C2.

Hint

Same reasoning as Q4: from F = kq1q2/r2, the units of k are N.m2/C2.
