Answer:
- 1.3 x 10⁻¹⁵ C/m
Explanation:
Q = Total charge on the circular arc = - 353 e = - 353 (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) C = - 564.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
r = Radius of the arc = 5.30 cm = 0.053 m
θ = Angle subtended by the arc = 48° deg = 48 x 0.0175 rad = 0.84 rad (Since 1 deg = 0.0175 rad)
L = length of the arc
length of the arc is given as
L = r θ
L = (0.053) (0.84)
L = 0.045 m
λ = Linear charge density
Linear charge density is given as
Inserting the values
λ = - 1.3 x 10⁻¹⁵ C/m
