Field is Property of Space Electric Field + Q . r E Electric Field + Q . r Force on +q is with field direction. F - -q + +q F Force on -q is against field direction. The field E at a point exists whether there is a charge at that point or not. The direction of the field is away from the +Q charge.

The Magnitude of E-Field The magnitude of the electric field intensity at a point in space is defined as the force per unit charge (N/C) that would be experienced by any test charge placed at that point. Electric Field Intensity E The direction of E at a point is the same as the direction that a positive charge would move IF placed at that point.

The E-Field at a distance r from a single charge Q Consider a test charge +q placed at P a distance r from Q. + Q . r P E + Q . r P F + +q The outward force on +q is: The electric field E is therefore:

The Resultant Electric Field. The resultant field E in the vicinity of a number of point charges is equal to the vector sum of the fields due to each charge taken individually. Consider E for each charge. E2 + - · q1 q2 q3 A E1 Vector Sum: E = E1 + E2 + E3 ER E3 Magnitudes are from: Directions are based on positive test charge.

Field lines go away from positive charges and toward negative charges. Electric Field Lines Electric Field Lines are imaginary lines drawn in such a way that their direction at any point is the same as the direction of the field at that point. + Q - -Q Field lines go away from positive charges and toward negative charges.

Examples of E-Field Lines Two equal but opposite charges. Two identical charges (both +). Notice that lines leave + charges and enter - charges. Also, E is strongest where field lines are most dense.

Summary of Formulas The Electric Field Intensity E: The Electric Field Near several charges: Gauss’s Law for Charge distributions.
