A particle with a charge 2.15 C is placed in a uniform electric field. It experiences a force of 7.95 N. Another charge, 0.000294 C, is 
placed in the same electric field. What size force does it experience? 
1.09e-3 
(Note: to enter powers of 10 use "e" notation: 1.23 x 105 
Correct. 
experienced by the second particle. 
= 1.23 e 5) 
You need to use the force on the first particle (F = Eq) to calculate the size of the electric field and then use this to calculate the force

A charge of 0.0000267 C is moved from point A to point B. B is at a higher potential than A. The voltage difference between A and B is 
8.31 V. How much potential energy does the charge gain? 
2.22+4 
J

Find the magnitude of the electric field intensity at a distance 10.9 cm, from the axis of a long, straight conductor, which has a radius 
2.30 cm, and a charge density of 4.53 C/m. 
7.47e11 
Correct. Well done. 
You need to use the equation: 
E = q/ (21TEorl)
