Mr. Patel is photocopying lab sheets for his first period class. A particle of toner carrying a charge of 4.0 * 10^9 C in the copying machine experiences an electric field of 1.2 * 10^6 N/C as it’s pulled toward the paper. What is the electric force acting on the toner particle?

4.8 * 10^15 Newton

Step-by-step explanation:

Electric field is electric force  created by a unit charge. Mathematically it is defined as

Electric field = electric force /charge in coulomb  (1)

given

Electric field =  1.2 * 10^6 N/C

charge = 4.0 * 10^9 C

substituting above value in equation 1 we have

1.2 * 10^6 N/C =  electric force/4.0 * 10^9 C

=> 1.2 * 10^6 N/C * 4.0 * 10^9 C = electric force

=> electric force = 4.8 * 10^15

Thus, electric force acting on the toner particle is 4.8 * 10^15 Newton

b. the decimal could be two-tenths.
