Understanding Electric Field Strength
Electric field strength (E) is a vector quantity defined as the electric force per unit charge exerted on a small positive test charge placed at a point. It indicates the intensity and direction of an electric field.
The SI unit for electric field strength is Volts per meter (V/m), which is equivalent to Newtons per Coulomb (N/C).
