1. **Problem 1:** Mika's sweater charges her body, and a lint piece with charge $1.60 \times 10^{-19}$ C experiences a force of $3.2 \times 10^{-9}$ N. Find the electric field at that location.
2. **Formula:** The electric field $E$ is related to force $F$ and charge $q$ by
$$E = \frac{F}{q}$$
This means the electric field is the force per unit charge.
3. **Calculation for Problem 1:**
$$E = \frac{3.2 \times 10^{-9}}{1.60 \times 10^{-19}}$$
4. Simplify the fraction:
$$E = \frac{3.2}{1.60} \times \frac{10^{-9}}{10^{-19}} = 2 \times 10^{10} \text{ N/C}$$
5. **Problem 2:** A force of 5 N acts on a charge of $6 \mu C = 6 \times 10^{-6}$ C. Find the electric field intensity.
6. Use the same formula:
$$E = \frac{F}{q} = \frac{5}{6 \times 10^{-6}}$$
7. Simplify:
$$E = \frac{5}{6} \times 10^{6} = 0.8333 \times 10^{6} = 8.33 \times 10^{5} \text{ N/C}$$
8. **Problem 3:** A charge of $4 \mu C = 4 \times 10^{-6}$ C exerts a force of $3.6 \times 10^{-4}$ N to the right on a positive test charge. Find magnitude and direction of electric field.
9. Calculate magnitude:
$$E = \frac{3.6 \times 10^{-4}}{4 \times 10^{-6}} = 90 \text{ N/C}$$
10. Direction: Since force is to the right on a positive charge, electric field is also to the right.
**Final answers:**
1. $E = 2 \times 10^{10}$ N/C
2. $E = 8.33 \times 10^{5}$ N/C
3. $E = 90$ N/C to the right
