An airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 2 500 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 +42 C at height 4 000 m within the cloud and ?42 C at height 500 m, what is the magnitude of the electric field E at the aircraft? (ke = 8.99 × 10^9 N·m2/C2)
