Chapter 13: Q16P (page 540)

An electron in a region in which there is an electric field experiences a force of magnitude3.8脳10-16N . What is the magnitude of the electric field at the location of the electron?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude of the electric field electron is 2.37脳103N/C.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The given data can be listed below,

The magnitude of the force isF=3.8脳10-16N

02

Concept/Significance of electric field.

The forces acting on charges in an electric field are calculated in an abstract method. While a field is undeniably real, it lacks the characteristics of a particle or a mass.

03

Determination of the magnitude of the electric field at the location of the electron

The electric field of an electron is given by,

E=Fq

Here, F is the force acting on the electron and q is the charge on the electron.

Substitute values in the above,

E=3.8脳10-16N1.6脳10-19C=2.37脳103N/C

Thus, the magnitude of the electric field electron is 2.37脳103N/C.
