Answer:
E1 = 10.15 * 10^4 N/C
E2 = 0
E3 = 10.15 *10^4 N/C
Explanation:
Given data:
Two 13 cm-long thin glass rods ( L ) = 0.13 m
charge (Q) = +11nC
distance between thin glass rods = 4 cm .
<u>Calculate the electric field strengths </u>
electric charge due to a single glass rod in the question ( E ) =
equation 1 can be used to determine E1, E2 and E3 because the points lie within the two rods hence the net electric field produced will be equal to the difference in electric fields produced
applying equation 1 to determine E1
E1 =
( distance from 1 rod is 0.01 m and from the other rod is 0.03 )
=
= 10.15 * 10^4 N/C
applying equation 1 to determine E2
E2 =
therefore E2 = 0
E1 = E3
hence E3 = 10.15*10^4 N/C
the electric force decreases because the distance has an indirect relationship to the force
Explanation:
The electric force between two objects is given by
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the charges of the two objects
r is the distance between the two objects
As we can see from the formula, the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: so, when the distance between the object increases, the magnitude of the force decreases.
