Homework Equations


##r=0.15-0.05cos(\omega t)## ##\omega = \sqrt {\frac{k}{m}}##
##\vec{E}=\frac{Qk}{r^2}##

The Attempt at a Solution


In my end result, I got the same thing as above, but with 10^5 in the numerator. According to the solutions guide, the final answer is a simplification of ##\frac{2.7*10^4}{(0.15-0.05cos(13.92t))^2}## Did I make a mistake or did the textbook? Thank you.

I solved it already, It just want to check if it's 10^5 or 10^7
