The electric field strength 16.0 m from the center of the wire at a point on the wire's perpendicular bisector is 7.875 N/C.

Electric field strength

The electric field strength of a charge is the force per unit charge.

The electric field strength 16.0 m from the center of the wire at a point on the wire's perpendicular bisector is calculated as follows;

\(E = \frac{2k\lambda }{r} \\\\E = \frac{2 \times 9 \times 10^9 \times 7 \times 10^{-9} }{16} \\\\E = 7.875 \ N/C\)

Thus, the electric field strength 16.0 m from the center of the wire at a point on the wire's perpendicular bisector is 7.875 N/C.
