Chapter 21, Problem 90A
To determine

To Rank:The charges according to the force experienced in the electric field.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Charges and electric field.

  3 nC in 70 N/C5 nC in 600 N/C3 nC in 20 N/C6 nC in 35 N/C8 nC in 10 N/C

Formula Used:

The force experienced by a charged particle in an electric field is given by

  F=qE

q is the charge

E is the electric field.

Calculation:

  F=qE

  FA=(3 nC)(70 N/C)=210 NFB=(5 nC)(600 N/C)=3000 NFC=(3 nC)(20 N/C)=60 NFD=(6 nC)(35 N/C)=210 NFE=(8 nC)(10 N/C)=80 N

Conclusion:

The ranking according to the magnitude of the force experienced from greatest to least is:

(B), (A), (D), (E),(C)
