Answer:
The relationship is [tex]E=\frac{ kQ}{d^2}[/tex]
Explanation:
The electric field strength is denoted by the symbol E,
the test charge is denoted be q and the source charge be Q
distance is denoted by d
Then the equation can be rewritten in symbolic form as
Electric field strength is = Force/charge
[tex]E=\frac{F}{q}------1[/tex]
we know that the formula for force is given as
[tex]F= \frac{kQq}{d^2} ------2[/tex]
where [tex]k= 9*10^9 N.m^2/C^2[/tex]
and d is the separation distance between charges
We can insert the expression for Force in equation one
we have
[tex]E= \frac{kQ\sout{q}/d^2}{\xout{q}}--------3[/tex]
We can strike out both qs in the numerator and denominator we have
[tex]E=\frac{ kQ}{d^2}[/tex]
