A charge of 1.0 x 10-5 Coulombs experience force of 40N at a certain point in space. What is the electric field intensity?

  • A 8.00 x 106NC-1
  • B 4.00 x 106NC-1
  • C 4.00 x 10-4NC-1
  • D 2.00 x 10-4NC-1
  • E 2.50 x 10-1NC-1

The correct answer is B. 4.00 x 106NC-1

F = qE; E = F/q = 40/(1.0 x 10-5) = 4.0 x 106
