To obtain the value of an unknown electrical charge, a group performed an experiment. From the graph of the electric potential (voltage) V in volts, as a function of the inverse distance (1/r) in m^-1, the group obtained an angular coefficient 6838 Nm^2/C by the linear equation of the best straight line. Knowing that V=(kq)/r, calculate the value of the electric charge, in nC (nanocoulomb), from the slope provided by the best line.
Round the answer to a whole number.
