Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Calculate the electric field strength produced by a charge of 10μC located 0.5 m away in a vacuum.

💡 Hint: Make sure to convert μC to C before calculating.

Challenge 2 Hard

A charged plate creates an electric field that extends out 0.2 m. If it exerts a force of 1N on a charge of 0.05C, calculate the electric field strength.

💡 Hint: Look at how force distributes over the charge you have.
