A very long thin wire carries a uniformly distributed charge, which creates an electric field. The electric field is (2300 N/C , toward the wire) 4.10 cm from the wire Consider a 1.00-cm-long segment of the wire. How much charge (in nC) is on this segment ?

Answer:

λ= 5.24 × 10 ⁻² nC/cm

Explanation:

Given:

distance r = 4.10 cm = 0.041 m

Electric field intensity E = 2300 N/C

K = 9 x 10 ⁹ Nm²/C

To find λ = linear charge density = ?

Sol:

we know that E= 2Kλ / r

⇒ λ = -E r/2K         (-ve sign show the direction toward the wire)

λ = (- 2300 N/C × 0.041 m) / 2 ×  9 x 10 ⁹ Nm²/C

λ = 5.24 × 10 ⁻⁹ C/m

λ = 5.24 nC/m = 5.24 nC/100 cm

λ= 5.24 × 10 ⁻² nC/cm
