Mr. Patel is photocopying lab sheets for his first period class. A particle of toner carrying a charge of 4.0 * 10^9 C in the copying machine experiences an electric field of 1.2 * 10^6 N/C as it’s pulled toward the paper. What is the electric force acting on the toner particle?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.8 × 10^15 N

Explanation:

Electric Field is defined as Force per unit Charge.

This is expressed mathematically as;

E= F/Q

Where E- Electric Field

F- Force

Q- charge

From the expression above by change of subject of formula for F, we have;

F=E×Q

= 1.2 * 10^6 ×4.0 * 10^9

= 4.8 × 10^15 N
