Expert Answer
Coulomb's law
Electrostatic force between two charges q1 and q2 that are separated by a distance d is
where K = 1/(4) is Coulomb's constant or electrostatic constant and is unit vector
along the direction of line joining charges q1 and q2 .
----------------------------------------
Units of electrosatatic constant K = 1/(4) is N m2 C-2
Dimension of Newton N = M L T-2
Coulomb is current × time . Hence dimension of coulomb = A T-1
Hence dimension of electrostatic constant = M L T-2 × L2 × A T-2 = M L3 T-3
( M is mass , L is length and A is Ampere )
