The correct Answer is:
To determine a suitable unit for expressing electric field strength, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Electric Field Strength**: - Electric field strength (E) is defined as the force (F) experienced by a unit positive charge (Q) placed at a point in an electric field. - Mathematically, this can be expressed as: \[ E = \frac{F}{Q} \] 2. **Identifying the Units**: - The unit of force (F) in the International System of Units (SI) is Newton (N). - The unit of charge (Q) is Coulomb (C). - Therefore, substituting these units into the formula gives us: \[ E = \frac{\text{Newton}}{\text{Coulomb}} = \text{N/C} \] 3. **Conclusion**: - The suitable unit for expressing electric field strength is Newton per Coulomb (N/C). ### Final Answer: The suitable unit for expressing electric field strength is **Newton per Coulomb (N/C)**. ---
