The correct Answer is:
To find the magnitude of the electric field at the position of a charge due to source charges, we can use the relationship between electric force, electric field, and charge. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values**: - Charge \( q = 5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C} \) - Electric Force \( F = 25 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{N} \) 2. **Use the Formula for Electric Field**: The electric field \( E \) at a point due to a charge is given by the formula: \[ E = \frac{F}{q} \] where \( F \) is the electric force experienced by the charge and \( q \) is the charge itself. 3. **Substitute the Values into the Formula**: \[ E = \frac{25 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{N}}{5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C}} \] 4. **Calculate the Electric Field**: - First, simplify the fraction: \[ E = \frac{25}{5} \times \frac{10^{-3}}{10^{-6}} \] - This simplifies to: \[ E = 5 \times 10^{3} \, \text{N/C} \] 5. **Final Result**: The magnitude of the electric field at that position of the charge due to the source charges is: \[ E = 5 \times 10^{3} \, \text{N/C} \]
