There is a very long straw of charge that is uniformly charged in electro static equilibrium. It has a charge per unit length of 4.0E-9 C/m (4.0 nC/m) and a radius of 0.5 m. What is the strength of the electric field a distance of 10.0 m from its center outside the straw

Answer:

2880 N/c

Explanation:

Given that:

Charge per unit length ; λ = 4 * 10^-9

radius, r = 10

Radius, R = 0.5m

Using the relation :

2λr / 4πE0R²

Columb's constant, k = 1/4πE0 =. 9* 10^9Nm²/C²

Hence, we have :

2λrk/ R²

(2 * 4 * 10^-9 * 10 * 9 * 10^9) / 0.5^2

(720 ÷ 0.25)

= 2880 N/c
