What will be the magnitude of the electric field at point O as shown in the figure? Each side of the figure is l and perpendicular to the other?
Options
- A1 4 π ε 0 q l 2
- B1 4 π ε 0 q 2 l 2 ( 2 2 - 1 )
- Cq 4 π ε 0 ( 2 l ) 2
- D1 4 π ε 0 2 q 2 l 2 ( 2 )
Correct answer
B. 1 4 π ε 0 q 2 l 2 ( 2 2 - 1 )
Step-by-step solution
E 1 = k q l 2 = E 2 E 3 = k q ( 2 ℓ l = k q 2 l 2 E = 2 k q l 2 - k q 2 l 2 = k q 2 l 2 ( 2 2 - 1 )
