Electric field and force between charges at varying distances

[lineo]

Find the Force and Electric field strength experienced by a 25µC charge particle a distance r away from another 8µC charge particle in air for the following distances.

I have this table below would anyone be able to help me out would be much appreciated!

I am happy to provide a response to this content. The force and electric field strength between two charged particles at varying distances is governed by Coulomb's Law. This law states that the force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. In mathematical terms, it can be expressed as F = k(q1q2)/r^2, where F is the force, k is a constant, q1 and q2 are the charges of the two particles, and r is the distance between them.

In this case, we have a 25µC charge particle and an 8µC charge particle in air, separated by a distance r. To find the force and electric field strength experienced by the 25µC charge particle, we can use the equation mentioned above. However, before we do that, it is important to note that the units for charge and distance must be in SI units for the equation to work correctly. Therefore, we need to convert 25µC to 0.000025 C and 8µC to 0.000008 C.

Using the values we have, the force between the two particles can be calculated as:

F = (9x10^9 Nm^2/C^2)(0.000025 C)(0.000008 C)/(r^2)
= 0.18/r^2 N

The electric field strength at a distance r from the 8µC charge particle can be found by dividing the force by the charge of the 25µC particle:

E = 0.18/r^2 N / 0.000025 C
= 7200/r^2 N/C

To determine the exact force and electric field strength at different distances, we would need to know the value of r. However, based on the calculations above, we can see that the force and electric field strength will decrease as r increases. This is because the force and electric field strength are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two particles.

I hope this helps to answer your question. If you need further clarification or have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask. As scientists, it is our responsibility to use our knowledge and understanding of natural phenomena to explain and solve problems.
