Question

Which, among the following is the correct expression for an electric field?

(a) E=F/C

(b) E=F*C

(c) E=F/Q

(d) E=F*Q

I got this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.

Enquiry is from Electric Fields topic in section Capacitance and Capacitors of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer 1

The correct choice is (c) E=F/Q

The best I can explain: Electric field is the force per unit charge hence, the correct expression among the following is: E=F/Q.
