Answer:

18 N/C

Explanation:

Given that:

Electric field constant, k = 9*10^9 N/c

Distance, r = 10^-8 m

Dipole moment, p = 10^-33

Using the relation for electric field due to dipole :

E = [2KP / r³]

E = (2 * (9*10^9) * 10^-33) ÷ (10^-8)^3

E = (18 * 10^9 * 10^-33) ÷ 10^-24

E = [18 * 10^(9-33)] ÷ 10^-24

E = (18 * 10^-24) / 10^-24

E = 18 * 10^-24+24

E = 18 * 10^0

E = 18 N/C
