Suppose a charge q=+50 uc experiences a force of 0.040 n which points to the right. what is the magnitude and direction of the electric field that causes this force?

The magnitude of the electric field is 800 N/C and the direction is positive and points to the right.

Explanation:

Ok, here is the explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field is simply defined as the force per charge on the test charge:

If the electric field strength is denoted by the symbol E, then the equation can be rewritten in symbolic form as:

and this is the equation we are going to use to solve the problem

We have: E=?, q=+50μC and F=0.040N

We know that 1C=1x10-6 μC so 50μC is equal to 5x10-5 C or 0.00005 C

Then we use the equation as follows:

Because the charge is positive and also the force applied, so will the electric field. And since the force points to the right, the electric field as a vector points to the right.

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
