2. 0 mc charge in an external field of 20n/c, north (direction) will experience a force of 0.4 newtons, the direction of the force is north
Force in an electric field = charge * electric field
given
charge = 2* [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] C
electric field = 20 N/C
Force in an electric field = 2* [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] * 20
= 0.04 N
since , external field is in north direction then the force must be in north direction because the direction of an electric field at a point is the same as the direction of the electric force acting on a positive test charge
hence, 2. 0 mc charge in an external field of 20n/c, north (direction) will experience a force of 0.4 newtons, the direction of the force is north
