What is the magnitude of the electric field at the aircraft

Reference no: EM13689812

I need proficient help in the following problem:

Problem: An airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 2 000 m. (This is a very dangerous thing to do because of updrafts, turbulence, and the possibility of electric discharge.) If there is a charge concentration of +40 C at height 3 000 m within the cloud and -40 C at height 1 000 m,

A- What is the magnitude of the electric field E at the aircraft?

If possible just a brief explanation how you got the answer?
