Answer:
1.1259*10^9 Newton per Columb
Explanation:
the magnitude of the electric field intensity can be calculated using the expresion below;
E=Kq/r^2
Where k= constant
q= electric charge
r=distance= 2cm= 20*10^-2m( we convert to m for unit consistency
:,K=59*10^9 Columb
If we substitute the value into above formula we have
E=(9*10^9)*(5*10^-3)/(20*10^-2)^2
=1.1259*10^9 Newton per Columb
Therefore,the magnitude of the electric field intensity in vacuum at a distance of 20 cm is 1.1259*10^9 Newton per Columb
