What is a Charge Force Calculator?
A Charge Force Calculator computes the force experienced by a charged particle in an electric field. This fundamental physics calculation is based on the relationship between electric field strength and charge.
Formula
The charge force is calculated using:
$$F = E \times q$$
Where:
- F = Force (N)
- E = Electric Field Strength (N/C)
- q = Charge Point (C)
How to Calculate Charge Force
- Determine the electric field strength (E) in N/C
- Identify the charge point (q) in coulombs
- Multiply the electric field strength by the charge point
- The result is the force in newtons (N)
Example Calculation
Given:
- Electric Field Strength (E) = 7.50 N/C
- Charge Point (q) = 950 C
Calculation:
$$F = E \times q = 7.50 \times 950 = 7{,}125 \text{ N}$$
The charge force is 7,125 N.
