Three is an electric field E in the x - ...

Three is an electric field E in the x - direction. If the work done by the electric field in moving a charge of `0.2 C` through a distance of `2 m` along a line making an angle `60^(@)` with the x- axis is `4 J`, then what is the value of E ?

A

`sqrt(3) NC^-1`

B

`NC^-1`

C

`NC^-1`

D

`20 NC^-1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

`F = qE`
`W = q E xx 2 cos 60^(@)`
or `4 = 0.2 E xx 2 xx (1)/(2)` or `E = 20 NC^-1`.
