Electrostatics Question 719

Question: A point charge $ 50\mu C $ is located in the x-y plane at a point whose position vector is $ \vec{r}=( 2\hat{i}+3\hat{j} )m. $ Then electric field at the point whose position vector is $ \vec{r}=( 8\hat{i}-5\hat{j} )m. $ (in vector form) will be

Options:

A) $ 90( -3\hat{i}+4\hat{j} )V/m $

$ $

B) $ 900( 3\hat{i}-4\hat{j} )V/m $

C) $ 90( 3\hat{i}-4\hat{j} )V/m $

D) (d)$ 900( -3\hat{i}+4\hat{j} )V/m $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

[b] $ \vec{E}=\frac{kQ}{r^{3}}\vec{r}=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 50\times {{10}^{-6}}}{|\vec{r}-{{{\vec{r}}} _{0}}{{|}^{3}}}\times ( \vec{r}-{{{\vec{r}}} _{0}} ) $

Where $ \vec{r}-{{\vec{r}} _{0}}=(8\hat{i}-5\hat{j})-(2\hat{i}+3\hat{j})=6\hat{i}-8\hat{j} $

$ \vec{E}=900(3\hat{i}-4\hat{j})V/m $
