PhysicsElectric fieldsA2/A-levelEdexcel Created by: ReductitoCreated on: 09-09-13 18:43 What is the equation for the electric field strength of radial fields? Electric field strength = constant k x charge / radius squard (E = kQ / r^2) 1 of 5 When drawing a radial electric field, what three things should you remember? You should draw at least 4 lines, the lines should be an equal distance away from each other and arrows should be included/ 2 of 5 What is the field strength at a point 2 cm from a charge of 2x10^-6 in air? (k = 9x10^9) E = kQ / r^2 = 9x10^9 x 2x10^-6 / 0.02^2 = 4.5x10^7 N 3 of 5 What is Coulomb's Law and what does it apply to? E = kQ1Q2 / r^2. It is used when calculating the electric field strength of radial fields. 4 of 5 What other equation is Coulomb's Law very similar to? The law of gravitation F = Gm1m2 / r^2. 5 of 5
