Question

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is represented by e. What is the strength of the electric field at twice the distance from the point charge?

Answer 1

Answer:

At twice the distance, the strength of the field is e/4

Explanation:

F = the strength of an electric field.

F is inversely proportional to the squared distance from the point charge.

mathematically,

F = k(e/d²)

hence, if d is doubled,keeping other forms constant

F = e/4,
