Find the magnitude of force on a 10 `mu C` charge placed in an electric field of `1 xx 10^(6)`N/C.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the magnitude of the force on a charge placed in an electric field, we can use the formula: \[ F = Q \times E \] where: - \( F \) is the force, - \( Q \) is the charge, - \( E \) is the electric field strength. ...
