Answer

(a) $6.74\times 10^4\frac{N}{C}$ (b) $1.69\times 10^4\frac{N}{C}$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can find the magnitude of electric field as follows: $E=K\frac{q}{r^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $E=8.99\times 10^9\times \frac{7.50\times 10^{-6}}{(1)^2}$ $E=6.74\times 10^4\frac{N}{C}$ (b) We can find the magnitude of electric field as follows: $E=K\frac{q}{r^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $E=8.99\times 10^9\times \frac{7.50\times 10^{-6}}{(2.00)^2}$ $E=1.69\times 10^4\frac{N}{C}$
