A very long thin wire carries a uniformly distributed charge, which creates an electric field. The electric field is (2300 N/C , toward the wire) 4.10 cm from the wire Consider a 1.00-cm-long segment of the wire. How much charge (in nC) is on this segment ?

λ= 5.24 × 10 ⁻² nC/cm

Explanation:

Given:

distance r = 4.10 cm = 0.041 m

Electric field intensity E = 2300 N/C

K = 9 x 10 ⁹ Nm²/C

To find λ = linear charge density = ?

Sol:

we know that E= 2Kλ / r

⇒ λ = -E r/2K         (-ve sign show the direction toward the wire)

λ = (- 2300 N/C × 0.041 m) / 2 ×  9 x 10 ⁹ Nm²/C

λ = 5.24 × 10 ⁻⁹ C/m

λ = 5.24 nC/m = 5.24 nC/100 cm

λ= 5.24 × 10 ⁻² nC/cm

the order for strong to weak forces such as

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force

the fundamental forces are those forces that act between to objects or element to make interactions. there are four types of fundamental forces such as strong and weak nuclear forces (due to protons and electrons), electromagnetic force (due to the motion of electrons) and gravitational force (due to orbital movement of the planet). if these forces are arranged on the basis of their maximum strength then the order is

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force
