Question :-

Calculate the force between TWO charges each of 20 micro coulombs in a medium of relative permittivity 4. The distance between the two

charges is 40 CM .

Answer :-

\to  \boxed{ \:  \: \sf \: F = 5.6 \: N \:  \:  \:  \: } \:  \\

To Find :-

→ Force between given charges .

SOLUTION :-

Given that :

  • Charge \sf q_1 = q_2 = 20 \mu

  • distance between charges (R)= 40 cm = 0.4 m
  • relative permittivity \epsilon_0 = 4

We know that,

_________________

→ According to coulomb's law ,

→ Force is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Hence ,

\to \sf \: F =  \frac{1}{4 \pi\epsilon_0 \: k }  \frac{q_1  q_2}{ {r}^{2} }  \\   \\  \because \: 1 \mu =  {10}^{ - 6}   \\ \\  \to \sf F =  \frac{9 \times  {10}^{9} }{4  }  \:  \frac{(20 \times  {10}^{ - 6} )(20 \times  {10}^{ - 6} )}{ {0.4 \times 0.4}^{ }}  \\  \\  \to \sf F =  \frac{9 \times 20  \times 20 \times  {10}^{ - 1} }{4 \times 4 \times 4}  \\  \\  \to \sf \: F =  \frac{9 \times 20 \ \: times 2}{4 \times 4 \times 4}  \\  \\  \to \sf F =  \frac{90}{16}  \\  \\  \to  \boxed{\sf \: F = 5.6 \: N \: }

Hence ,force between given charges is 5.6 N
