An infinite line charge produces a field of 9 × 104 N/C at a distance of 2 cm. Calculate the linear charge density.
Electric field produced by the infinite line charges at a distance d having linear charge density λ is given by the relation,
Where,
d = 2 cm = 0.02 m
E = 9 × 104 N/C
∈0 = Permittivity of free space
= 9 × 109 N m2 C−2
= 10 μC/m
Therefore, the linear charge density is 10 μC/m.

Answer is 1*10^-7 Coloumb which is 0.1 micro coloumb but your answer is wrong as ncert also printed wrong!!!!!
Answer is wrong
Answer is wrong
Answer is correct 10uC/m = 10 x 10^-6 C/m
This answer is wrong The correct answer is 1.008Ã10^-6
Really helpful
Sister answere sahi hi apne answeres ko micro coulomb me badalo
hi your answer is wrong the correct answer is 10^-7. explanation :- ð¸ = ð /2ðð0ð â ð = 2ðð0ðð¸ ð=2*3.14*8.85*10^-12*9*10^4 ð=6.28*18*10^-2*10^4*8.85*10^-12 ð=1000.3*10^2*10^-12 ð=10^3*10^2*10^-12 ð=10^-7 so,the correct answer is 10^-7
