The force between two interacting charges is 9.0 × 10-5 newtons. They are kept 1 meter apart. If the magnitude of one charge is 1.0 × 10-6 coulombs, what is the magnitude of the other charge?

Sagot :

The magnitude of other charge will be 1 × 10⁻² coulomb

The formula of electrostatic force is

Electrostatic force = K q1 q1 / r²

where k is the coulomb's constant whose value is 9 × 10⁹

q1 and a2 are the magnitude of charges

and r is the distance between them

magnitude of the force given to us is 9.0 × 10⁻⁵ newtons

magnitude of one charge = 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ coulomb

Force = K q1 q2 / r²

9.0 × 10⁻⁵ = ( ( 9 × 10⁹ ) × ( 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ ) × q2 ) / 1

9.0 × 10⁻⁵ =  9 × 10³ × q2  

10⁻² = q2  

Charge on q2 is 1 × 10⁻² coulomb

So the magnitude of the second charge is came out to be 1 × 10⁻² coulomb after applying the formula of electrostatic force.
